        My raspberries, after cleaning them out and removing 70% of plant mass.

        They were supposed to fill a few bare spots of soil, not grow over my tomatoes and blueberries....

        ... Luckily lots of blueberries survived and with our cat's help the birds will stay away long enough for me to enjoy some.

          Is the sollya outside @Michael Hewett ? I've fancied growing it before but was put of qith the hardiness rating . Your Clematis Madame julia is looking great , I bought one this year its still in a pot waiting for me to find a home for it.

            The Sollya is in a pot @Perki and is put outside in the summer. In the winter I put it in an unheated conservatory.
            Good luck with the clematis, I have found it to be a very floriferous variety. I tried moving it a few years ago and some of the root got left behind so now I've got two :dbgrtmb:

                            Nice to see your Plumbago flowers @Victoria, mine hasn't flowered this year but maybe that's because it died back a lot last winter, even though I put it in the shed.
