Looking good in the garden - 28 June 2008 - Summer

Each month we look at some of the plants in the garden that visitors may be interested in finding. Their location in the garden is provided.

Sempervivums
In flower on the step in front of Boat House 6

Painted Lady sweet pea and Penstemons
companions in the electrical sub station bed

Morello Cherries
The last of the cherries after raiding by marauding birds and the Friends for jam making. Along the Dockyard wall

Allium Giganteum and Sisyrinchium
These giant alliums have been a popular feature in the William III bed this year, a good contrast with the yellow spires of the sisyrinchium.
