New arrivals and autumn returnees
A new flush of colour has appeared in the past few days. Some are autumn specialists such as the cyclamen and hardy fuchsia. Others have come back for another show. I'm especially pleased with Primula vialli which I thought only flowered in spring, and Echinacea 'Art's Pride', once again lighting the prairie garden with a fabulous hot glow.
Fuchsia 'Mrs Popple' - a favourite of mine. Always puts on a good show and survives even tough winters below ground level.
The first of the early cyclamen. I need to figure out the difference between C. coum and C. hederifolium
All the sunflowers have flopped over - luckily this one fell onto the wall. My first proper photo with my new long lens, a birthday present from DB.
Echinacea 'Art's Pride' My plant of the year. Well worth all the hype it's getting this autumn.
Primula vialli, back for another virile display in hot pink and magenta.
