Hot stuff

My new bed is now planted with heleniuims, crocosmia, buddleia and honeysuckle designed to create a mid to late summer planting of hot colours and fragrance. I also have lavender, rosemary and thyme. This area will always be fairly dry as it is next to the hedge and so I reconsidered what to grow here as I worked to dig the soil over. One advantage of manual labour is that there is plenty of time for thinking. Now I need to prepare the rest of the area which I want to plant up during the autumn.
