Sal, I've tried to have an English garden but found many plants aren't happy in the Summer heat/humidity here. Azaleas though are at home and do so well so I've embraced them.
Thank you for the gift of flowers. Not much in my garden yet apart from a few tardy daffodils and some pansies that have survived the winter, but not without taking a battering. Have a good Sunday!
Your garden is a thing of beauty and a joy forever. I noticed this week that our native bluebells are now in flower, so I must hasten to the woods very soon.
Yes the azalea blooms just don't last long enough do they Mariette - already fading and dropping, sigh! I must do serious pruning on some this year - they are gigantic, like 8-10 feet tall!
Ali, they really don't have perfume but smell clean and fresh - they are awesome for about 2 weeks when flowering, then stay a lovely green year round as they're evergreen thankfully!
What a lovely garden!
ReplyDeleteI like pink in the garden.
Thanks - I would never wear pink but love it in the garden!!!
DeleteWow, that’s beautiful and so inspiring! 😁

ReplyDeleteI'm sure the warmth will arrive soon John and your gardens will look lovely for summer.
DeleteBeautiful! Have a wonderful day, dear Mary.
ReplyDeleteIt was a busy Sunday Meike - a new low wall being built and planting up pots of seeds - herbs mostly.
DeleteOh how absolutely glorious Mary. Your garden is my idea of Heaven :) xxx
ReplyDeleteThank you Trish - it's a lot of work but somehow we keep going with a little help now and then.
DeleteSo lovely. I want to walk through your beautiful garden, Mary!
ReplyDeleteBarbara, I wish so much I could show you around in person!
DeleteYour garden is stunning! We are still getting snow off and on so seeing your beautiful garden was a breath of fresh air.
ReplyDeleteWelcome, and thanks for you kind comment.
DeleteBeautiful spring garden Mary!
ReplyDeleteThanks Penny - we're still plodding away to keep the garden up, hard work though!

ReplyDeleteWould love to walk through an 'English bluebell wood' again Rosemary - enjoy your time and take photos for us please!
DeleteYour garden is full of beauty! I'd love to have a cup of tea there with you, Mary.
ReplyDelete......and I'd bake a special cake for us to enjoy with the tea Lorrie!
DeleteDearest Mary,
ReplyDeleteEnjoy this colorful beauty for as long (short!) as it lasts.
Hugs,
Mariette
