After all of the rain that we have had recently everything seems to be shooting up! After being away for just two days we could really see a difference in the garden.
At last, the sunshine is out, so flowers are opening and the garden has a lovely summer fragrance to it. This weekend we are really going to be enjoying our garden as we are having a lot of family over for a BBQ. It is going to be lovely to sit back and appreciate what we have achieved so far!
Next week the building work for the hubby's greenhouse project will begin so I am sure that it will be manic.
This is how our garden has grown this week...
The Peony in the front garden is starting to bloom! |
The beautiful Alliums are opening up! |
We now have 4 rows of potatoes coming through! |
The beans are shooting up! |
Garlic |
Pretty Cowslips growing near the hedge. |
As a few of you did say, the purple flowers are Bluebells! |
Purple Sensation! |
My herb garden is getting so large, I am going to be preserving some cut herbs soon! |
I found a toadstool in the grass, it will be gone when the hubby cuts the grass! |
Pretty Daisies which Isabella loves to pick! |
The Peony in the back garden is still yet to open! |
One of three Clematis flowers! |
Chives flowers are almost open. |
Our first Strawberries! |
A pretty purple Lupin is opening in the front garden. We are particularly pleased with them as they were grown from seed last year! |

ReplyDeleteGorgeous! Loving that peony! I saw lots of them in grandads garden at the weekend but they were all tightly closed so I reckon we have another week or two here before they come. Everythings growing so fast - it's fab!
ReplyDeleteBlogging from the garden is bliss isn't it? Thanks for joining in again - have a top weekend :)
Your garden is busy. Harvesting the herbs is one of my fvourite jobs. Always feel so calm afterwards. And how satisfying to see the lupins growing. #HDYGG
