The Delargo Gardens - October

 well me dears I am usually late but this month I am very, very late. So apologies and lets move on quickly, the next post is due next week!

Salvias have taken centre stage and the garden would be bereft with out them at the moment. This is Salvia 'Embers Wish

Still refusing to stop flowering; Thunbergia 'Orange Beauty'

Salvia uliginosa (Bog Sage) has the most perfect blue flowers. We Love it.

Salvia 'Love & Wishes'

We instantly fall in love with some plants, others we learn to love because the do well for us when others don't. This is the later, Impatiens walleriana, also known as Busy Lizzie. It has not stopped flowering since May and is still in flower now and sits so well amongst our Ferns.

New for us this year is the most lovely and delicate Salvia “African Skies” [poss. hybrid of S. chamelaeagnea with S. scabra]

A firm favourite here at Delargo Towers, Salvia x guaranitica “Rockin' Fuchsia”

A plant no garden should be with out; the wonderful; Salvia 'Amistad complete with Ladybird.

More beauties. They look fab but their lovely little flowers are so difficult to get in focus. 

Salvia greggi “Mirage Cherry Red”

Salvia x jamensis “Nachtvlinder”. We have more little flowered Salvias which we love but as I said they they are hard to photograph.

Another 'can't be without' and non stop flowering plant. Geranium (poss x wallichianum) 'Rozanne'.

 There Tiz then me darlins. A little sparse but still some colour to enjoy. Lets hop on the Golf Carts and tour the rest of the estate. First to the VIP refreshment tent wins a bottle of Bolly sweetie.

The Cordyline lives ! and has a riot of Foxgloves to keep it company.

Hard to believe but this Pelargonium has only just decided to flower.

and I think this will be the last Begonia we will see this year. Fingers crossed they get through the winter outside.

This will also be the last update on our friendly giant; Mr Taro.

Just enough time for a sneak preview of the up and coming Fuchsia Fest, the lovely Lady Boothby.
