How Does Your Garden Grow? Week 22

Well another week has flown by!

Unfortunately, thanks to the rain, we haven't been out much. However project greenhouse is almost complete. The vegetables are coming along so well and we are in love with all of the beautiful lupins that are brightening up our garden.

Yesterday I was treated to a new camera so I am hoping that I can improve on the quality of the pictures that I take of our garden.

This is how our garden has grown this week and how project greenhouse is going!

So pleased to see the Elderflower coming into bloom!

It has been a wet few days 


The heavy rain has knocked the petals off of our
beautiful Peony but gave me a perfect opportunity
to play with the macro setting on the camera!



Lovely Lupins

A rain drenched Allium

As always I am sharing how our garden has grown and our project greenhouse with the lovely Mammasaurus' How Does Your Garden Grow?

  8. Your greenhouse looks fantastic - so good to see the stages of it coming together.
    I think the peony is even more beautiful post rainstorm, in a very exotic sort of way!

  13. Lovely pictures! I would love a green house but our garden is just to small :( My little boy does gardening club at nursery so we have a few little potted things growing around the garden which he loves to water and watch grow!

  19. Aliums are so pretty. I'm loathe to plant anything whilst my children are young, I think that's a project for when they no longer want to kick balls around.
