It is peak spring, so the garden is full of flowers popping out everywhere. Rather than do one enormous post of all of them, I'm going to break it into segments. Part one is the back yard.
Lilac:
Redbud
Flowering quince
Snowball bush
Hebe:
Lavender:
The end of the freesias:
Sweetpeas:
Anemones:
This lovely little creeper which is spreading across an empty part of the garden:
Leaving the best to last:
Wisteria! Both the wisterias are flowering. They are slightly different colours, although that isn't obvious from the photo or in real life. I think one of them is meant to be more purple, but as I don't remember what varieties they are I can't check on that.
This is the third spring since the wisteria pergola was built (that post here). The plants have spread to cover about half of the length of the pergola, so by the end of this summer it could be completely covered.
Wisteria is beautiful--and that lilac (my personal favorite) is beautiful...Thanks for sharing..hugs, Julierose
ReplyDeleteI was wondering if your wisteria were flowering. Magnificent!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful spring blooms.
ReplyDeleteYour garden is lovely. Is that ground cover/ creeper thingo related to violets?
ReplyDeleteThe ground cover plant is Cymbalaria muralis, which has various common names, including Kenilworth ivy, and ivy-leaf toadflax. Although the flowers are a bit like violets, it is not closely related to them. They are a long way from each other in the family tree of plants.
DeleteIt’s all so beautiful. I wish we were just heading into spring here.
ReplyDeleteYour garden is beautiful. Love your wisteria!
ReplyDeleteFantastic flowers in your garden. Your lavander is different from ours. Yours have more intense color, beautiful.
