Today's Flowers; in my garden;



Daylilies are having a new flush of flowers; Please click pictures to enlarge.


Groundcover Convolvolus mauritanicus; I have always known this plant under this name. I am not convinced that it is its right name. The flowers are sky blue, it is drought tolerant and spreading; it needs a cut from time to time to rejuvenate its growth.

Abelia; its sweet fragrance drifts lazily through the summer garden and evokes longings for lazy, carefree days.

Abelia Grandiflora; evergreen shrub, with arching branches to 2m. Shiny dark green glossy foliage, with white flushed with pink tubular flowers. Appearing in summer to autumn. Suitable for informal hedges, and screens.
