Daffodils nearly over
« on: May 02, 2008, 17:10:35 »
I am at that transition point in my garden, i.e. Daffodils dying back and perennials beginning to show. The next job in 4-6 weeks time will be to plant out the summer bedding plants.

This is how things looked today;



The herbaceous border partly old growth (daffs) and partly new (delphs)




A few tulips;







A few bits & pieces in flower;

Auricula



Incarvillea seedling (Hardy Gloxinia)



A few pot plants in the conservatory alcove;

Beautiful garden and lovely shots TeeGee, especially the Auricula. Have they been out all winter or do you have to protect them? Not had much success with them myself.
Happy gardening all...........Pat
