The summer is flying by and the garden is progressing too. We had rain all day Sunday, which made the Perovskia droop somewhat, and today it is raining again – I picked the perfect 5 minute interval in showers for these photos of the rockery today, and the sun almost came out – two minutes later it was raining again!
And from a few steps higher…
The Persicaria foliage and red spiky flowers make up for the fact that the red rose is only showing a few flowers at the moment…
And the Scabiosa ochroleuca is now in full bloom in front of the Perovskia…
… then there are also these dear little white flowers, which have spread around the rockery: Succisella inflexa ‘Frosted Pearls’…
The bees love it as much as I do and were there the moment the rain stopped.
I wonder how the month has begun in your garden. Do share your view so we can see how it progresses through the seasons.
Happy August!
