            Welcome. I too like that style of garden and I am trying to create something similar in my bit of the garden.

                      Sounds great. The house we moved in to a couple of years ago has a huge plum tree in the front

                        I have Lupins (flowering), Delphiniums, Foxgloves, Aquilegia, a couple of old roses and even some seedling Knifophia.
                        I have only a small bit of the garden that my wife didn't want. The shaded, damp, clay bit.
                        It is beginning to take shape though.

                            @Cottage_plants Today I was planting out some Night Scented Stock and some Poppies. I noticed I have Gladiolii doing well and Honeysuckle and Sweet Peas in bloom.

                              That's looking great. I have a beautiful Aquilegia called black barlow, unfortunately the slugs munched it before it could flower this year.
