Oh My Gosh. It is mid May and I and I am only just posting the April garden Blog. The time has just flown by so lets get on with a whistle stop trip of the Gardens of Delargo Towers as they were in April.
April was a month of two halves, starting in late spring with the Tulips and ending in early Summer with Roses
Thalictrum Aquilegiifolium
Self sown Mimulus
Lily-of-the-valley in memory of my Mother
Brunnera macrophylla 'Jack Frost'
Time to jump up into the land rover to to see the grounds of Delargo towers bursting into growth
It is at this point of the tour that we will be introducing a new high light. Just as Monty Don has 'The Mound' in his garden we have had one of our own here at Delargo Towers. It has been constructed up towards the top field. Below is a photo of it being built.
on with the tour
By the end of the month we were heading into May and into Summer.
Aquilegia Swan Yellow
The Essex Rose; grown from seed by the boys in Essex.
Joy of joys. this Amaryllis has been out in the garden feeling sorry for it self for a couple of years. This Spring it has decided to flower.
