Heavenly Hydrangea

Last year the Heavenly Hydrangea Lane, a place in my garden where the hydrangeas grow was cold, unfriendly and empty, the plants were there carelessly growing without any promise,  but this year is a different story.  The plants are so greens showing buds, soon flowers are there in time to celebrate Christmas.

We shall have the incredible bloom throughout the summer.  The Lane will be vibrant with beautiful colours of this heavenly hydrangea, from pink and blue marvellous mophead to white lovely lace cap. And remember, that this flower even looks good as it fades, absolutely amazing.

I must say the potted hydrangea did not do badly last year, They were flowers, but they were not enough for cutting to take inside the house. And this time the plants are better and I could see flowers, but they are small,  not for long these pink Mophead hydrangea will grow bigger and beautiful.

Pretty Pink



Gregariously Geranium
No disappointment for the geranium, from orange, a variation of orange to pink colour this warm colour brightens up the garden. And my new red geranium which I purchased recently is almost in flower, I know that it is a red colour but would it be a soft red or a dark red?  Time will tell.

Perfect Pelargonium
The dramatic red colour pelargonium is blooming beautifully, four potted plants in the backyard.  These plants know how to show off, enough to replace the red roses which are not doing well this year.

 The tasks for the keeper is watering the potted plants regularly to keep them happy.


Courageous Cyclamen
Most of my cyclamen plants are resting until the next season, but this red one is so brave, it is staying with a few flowers.



Cool Corner

This is my favourite corner at the moment, the latest new planted flowers, and I believe it will be the toast of the garden this Christmas.  The cascading petunia will be at its best, and the yellow daisy will be the light of the space.  Bright and beautiful!


 Amazing Abutilon
The plant is growing beautifully in a pot, and it is good to be moved around.  Now it sits in a tall pot, and it can be seen from a distant displaying the pretty flowers.




















Beautiful Begonia
From the market for me, this indoor begonia has an amazing leaf, it is lime green with dark red dots at the edges.  I took it home, I love the delicate pink flowers.



Red Rose
The rose bushes are better now after early deadheading, I have been complaining about my red rose since the start of the season.  Now it's all good, there are flowers on the bushes and beautifully red.













Seven flowering plants are right so far, the pretty cool corner is the new addition and last, but not least is the garden edging.  Garden edging, which is close to the house, has been fixed, but it has not finished to perfection, said, Rayner.  How good it is neat and straight.  Well done!



Excellent Edging.

A new edging dressed the garden, it makes a difference.  It looks so smart.  Goodbye, old edging and a big welcome to the new one and I believe it will stay and last for years.



Things have been useful in the garden and hopefully, stay that way.   
In the backyard, gardening, getting fresh air is very therapeutic and relaxing.
