I forgot to welcome my new followers, so welcome to you. I hope you will enjoy our rather meandering journey through my small part of the world. We are continuing our tour of the plants flowering in my garden at the start of Autumn in the UK. Above is Astrantia Burgundy Manor, flowering since May and this is the second flush of flowers. I potted it on earlier in the year and it has repaid me.
A small white macropylla hydrangea which is taking on pink tones.
Hydrangea paniculata Sundae Fraise also putting on its Autumn display.
Salvia Nachtvlinder which has flowered for months and is still going.
Helianthus Lemon Queen is a lovely back of the border plant. I would like more of this so will see if I can divide it next Spring.
Some roses are still doing well. This is Susan Williams-Ellis.
This is one of my favourites - Kew Gardens. The single creamy yellow/white flowers are so pretty and are formed in panicles, a bit like a hydrangea paniculata.
Rose William Shakespeare 2000, which put out this one flower just in time for the Queen's funeral.
The ever reliable Liriope muscari which I keep saying needs dividing, but I haven't actually got round to it yet.
Finally, the lovely Miscanthus - I'm not totally sure whether it is Silberfeder or Kleine Fontane or something else. Either way, it is lovely!
I am going to plant some narcissus and muscari as soon as I can and then in November, I will be tulip planting. That's one of the many things I enjoy about gardening - there is always something to look forward to.
