ReplyDeleteI'm glad I'm not the only one with lost labels! I am looking forward to seeing the honesty, I haven't heard of that variety
ReplyDeleteThe Rosemary Verey one came from Hoo House nursery, Helen. The seed for the white one from Chiltern seeds.
DeleteLovely buds and blooms!
ReplyDeleteSweet dog!
Happy Gardening!

Thank you. He is most of the time!
DeleteSome very nice foliage, especially the variegated Lunaria. I like the dark Hellebore leaves too.
ReplyDeleteThe variegated Lunaria always attracts attention when we have visitors.
DeleteThanks for the tour Brian! There are some lovely things in bloom. As with others, I am am drawn to the variegated Lunaria - and the euphorbias. When are you opening for the NGS ? We are opening mid June .
ReplyDeleteWe are open on the 30th and 31st May, as part of the Hanley Swan Group.
DeleteMurphy looks quite adorable Brian. Interesting to see how your lunaria 'Rosemary Verey' has developed. My 'Chedworth' foliage has turned mainly purple now but there are still a few spotty leaves.
ReplyDeleteHe has his moments!! All the honesty has just taken off in growth this last week, it will be interesting to see them all in flower.
