'And since to look at things in bloom'
Just for a change, I'm not up in the hills.
We had our garden remodelled during the covid outbreak and things are finally beginning to settle down and Our garden is beginning to show signs of bloomin' blooms!
The chive flowers are starting to open:
As are the thyme flowers:
Our new little James Grieve apple tree is in blossom:
And the Mexican fleabane is going nuts, as it does!
The Heuchera has taken on its full marmalade colouration. The prickly job next door is an echinops which hasn't flowered yet:
We had rain overnight so there are jewels:
A Hibiscus bloom just starting to unravel. This gives a lot of bloom for a long time:
This is a fuschia of sorts:
Convolvulus- not like those wild ones that take over everywhere pretty though they are.This one seems to be much better mannered:
My gorse flowered in late February and is still blooming like mad!
More jewels from the overnight rain:
Our hawthorn is just beginning to blossom:
This is a jasmin of sorts:
More jewels:
Can't recall the name of this one!
Foxgloves just beginning to flower:
The hostas are starting to unfurl but won't flower for a bit yet:
Can't recall the name but this one loses its leaves in Winter:
The verbena is just starting to put out flowers. This will make a lot of growth come Summer:
This is the whole thing:
And this was how it started:

This is a bergenia and this is a shrubby cinquefoil - both are very popular in Swedish gardens.

We really needed to do something with it and finally decided to get a professional garden designer in. It's also nicely low maintenance as neither of us is really a gardener.
