Title: July highlights so far
Post by: Georgie on July 11, 2009, 20:03:04
Last time I posted a slide show towards the end of June it was too hot to do any gardening.  Today it was miserable and I was rained off.  So here's some of the photos taken this month.

Another lovely slide show Georgie. Love the Mondara. The stand is looking great.  (I remember you had an eye on another stand at Hatfield House!!)

Thanks both.   :)

I love the Monarda too, Lorna.  This is the first year I've been able to get it to the flowering stage as in the past it's either been eaten by slugs/snails or ruined by powdery mildew.  And as for the plant stand, yes, I will be buying more I think.  They are so handy in a small garden as you can get half a dozen containers in the space normally occupied by one.   ;D

Thanks, Caroline.  I've got half a dozen or so seeds left.  If you'd like them then send me a PM.   :)

And thank you too, Flighty and Jo.  Flighty you already have some seeds but sorry, Jo, I don't know how to taking cutttings of plant stands!   ;)
