The Delargo Gardens - October

 Here we are me dears and I'm sorry to keep you waiting for the gates open. We are well and truly into Autumn but while other plants are dying back the salvias don't seem to mind  


 This a new addition to the garden Salvia involucrata and we love it.
 

 If Amistad is the king of salvias then this is the Drag Queen of salvias.

That's most of the salvias covered but we do have more (yes we can get obsessive about plants). 

Now it's time to jump into the Land Rover for a tour of the rest of our vast estate 





after that bumpy ride you deserve a rest and some refreshment. this is the view from our VIP hospitality Lounge 

The Summer Bedding is still going. 

And we have the first harbinger of Spring even if Winter has not started yet. Our lovely Polyanthus which we been trying to keep going from last year have decided to flower.

We are getting ever closer to the long awaited Fuchsia Fest. This month sneak preview is a double whammy Fuchsia Glitters with Fuchsia triphylla 'Thalia' behind.

Donny doesn't like this time of year when the garden starts to die back going into Winter. In fact he has not moved since last month. The Mexican Flea Bane has started to grow around him but I know that he has been going through the seed catalogues and planning next year.

There tiz then me darlins. We hope to see you back in the garden next month

Till then It's TTFN from Donny

and TTFN from me
