Chelsea Flower Show And The White Garden

The Chelsea Flower show In London will be on later this month, I will be glued to the television coverage.  Particular favourites are the big show gardens and the courtyard gardens.  Not to mention all the wonderful plants and flowers on display.

As I post this, designers, plants men, set builders and organisers will be at Chelsea preparing the thousands of exhibits that will be on show.























Every year one colour comes out on top, I wonder which colour it will be this year?

In honour of the impending show I have posted some photos of plants in our garden, I love this time of year, everything is white......

Clematis Montana sprawling over a fence

Pyracantha I love it just before it blossoms, It has clouds of fluffy white buds, and in Autumn it is covered in clusters of beautiful red berries

Spirea, elegantly drooping

White Wisteria, it smells divine

The lovely white pom poms of Boules de Neige

Pretty white Erigeron, the daisy like flowers
start to turn a shade of deep pink as Summer progresses

Philadelphus also known as Mock Orange, on warm evenings it's beautiful orange blossom fragrance can be detected some distance away
