My favourite foxglove colour, in fact one of my favourite plants. The cultivated foxglove flowers every year (perrenial) for many years but the common native tall pink ones are biennual....growing a rosette in the first year then flowering the second. Some modern hybrids are annuals and flower just once but self seed for next year. The vast array of pinks and whites look fabulous amongst other plants.

Been watching this grow for a year....Great Mullien, biennial, so has been a pretty little furry rosette until recently, now threatening with a huge seed head yellow flower....will update when pops. Self seeded beast!

My special Californian Grande Sequoia is 12yrs old. Happy birthday healthy one. Remember when cycling from Oregon to San Fran, when you were a 2 inch high sapling in the Redwood Visitors Centre. You came with a guarantee or a replacement...would never swap you for the world.

My beautiful thornless climbing rose, Zephirine Drouhin, blooming well, cracked a flag to grow in full sun against the wall.
