Agapanthus catching the last rays of the day #agapanthus #julyflowers #londongardens #blueflowers #eveningsunKniphofia uvaria ‘Nobilis’ adding a very welcome splash of colour in the corner plot feront garden. Seen here with Lovage flowers, but a bit of deep purple (Salvia Amistad?) or bright pink (Persicaria orientalis?) against this giant red hot poker would look even more lively. #frontgarden #londongardens #gardensofinstagram #finsburypark #blackstocktriangle #lovage #herbs #orangeflowers #julyflowers #tallplants #islingtonYellow Aquilegia just finishing flowering- been in flower for ages. Fab plant lighting up a semi shaded area. Can’t remember where I bought this from. Could it be A. crysantha ‘Denver Gold’ from @greatdixterofficial ? Possibly.. #yellowflowers #highgate #plantsforshade #juneflowers #gardensofinstagram #springflowersPlonked myself down whilst working in corner plot front garden & stuffed myself with these Hinnomaki Red gooseberries. They’re so sweet & utterly moreish. I’m growing them as cordons so that I can squeeze in as many plants as possible (& not get so scratched while picking them). Not quite as plump as last year due to lack of rain, but still delicious & producing a generous amount of berries, so still some left to share!! #frontgarden #gooseberry #londongardens #gardensofinstagram #gyo #edibles #fruit #islington #finsburypark #blackstockroad #blackstocktrianglegardenersLove a bit of Morning Glory! Annie’s climber looking particularly vibrant & well tended in her front garden @finsburypark #ipomoea #blackstockroad #annualclimber #annualflowers #julyflowers #gardensofinstagram #londongardens #islingtonTeasel time of year. There’s definitely something of the ‘70’s feather cut about them. Bees seem to be glued to them! Plus seedlings popping up all over the garden for next year’s extravaganza. Good to share with neighbours & friends for wildlife friendly gardening. Love ‘em. #beefriendly #teasel #frontgarden #londongardens #finsburypark #blackstocktriangle #blackstockroad #gardensofinstagramOlder posts
