The weather is co-operating with my garden.

Sorry to have been so slow about getting back...great discription of the 4o'clocks! I planted mine from a pack of martha stewart seeds several years ago..shades of pink. they don't transplant well but are tough as nails once they establish. The hawkmoth is one of the reasons I have it in my garden, and the fragrance is amazing! I found out just last year that horned tomato catapilliars are what become hawkmoths, so this year I have planted tomatoes in the same flower bed...not sure it will make sense to the moth but I thought it was a good plan.
 
Thanks for the info Victoria, they look lovely, the seed pods sound interesting too. Pity, they look too tender for the UK climate.
 
Rosa, are you certain they wouldn't thrive in the U.K.? We have some pretty tough winters here, with mind numbing cold on occasion, and they always came back. Give it a shot!

Third try.

Picture attempt.
It is good having young'uns around to show you how to work these here new fangled contraptions.

This is my side garden walkway from the front to the back, or back to front depending on which way you are headed.

Sadly they won't open for me. :(

Great pictures of your beautiful garden, Doug. Well worth the wait to see them!
 
Nice pics Doug, lovely alliums :)

Tammy, thanks for your kind offer, would love to try them. Tends to be the dampness of the British winter that sees these sort of plants off, but perhaps I can grow them in a pot and overwinter in the cold frame. Worth a go!
 
I will post more pics as the different things flower.

I will post more pictures (now that know how) later as other things flower.

Next up are the peonies, day lilies and roses.

I have very little lawn in the back garden, the one side is a long garden and walkway the front yard is mostly garden and a little bit of grass.

Victoria sorry you can't open them, I could e-mail them (I think I can) if you PM your e-mail address, I promise not to SPAM you.

Go ahead and e-mail them Doug. I know you won't spam me. :)

Let's give it a go. I hate not seeing them!
