My garden is coming along very slowly ! Never have a lot of spare time but it's a start ! Got thyme, basil, curly parsley (which looks like a weed ! ), mint ( which looks like a nettle ! ) & some other herbs that I have forgotten the name of, begonias, lobelias,peony,verbena, honeysuckle, busy lizzies, pansies, asters etc. Started growing my own lavender from seed early this year, I planted a big tray but only 2 plants came through. Bit disappointed with them. Got a buddlia for the butterflies & my 2 black elder bushes are growing quicker than anything I have ever seen! My partner thinks they look like weeds but I love them.
When I bought the peony from the garden centre, there was this weird little plant in the pot with it. Think it might be some sort of cactus. So I will leave it alone & see what comes of it.
Having major trouble getting rid of the hedge bindweed. It looks so beautiful, with its white trumpet flowers. Can't believe something that pretty can do the damage it does !
