Whats Looking Good September

"Suffolk Red". They are very sweet .

 

Sloe time

 

The only rose that likes my garden! A persica, Eye of the Tiger.

 

At a garden centre I visited earlier

 

Cobaea pringlei going mad across verbena bonariensis and others. I was loathe to cut it back as it's a bit muddy some years.

Michaelmas daisy UFO (unidentified flowering object)
3 linaria - dalmatica (a cutting taken this spring), triornithophthera, and UFO.

 

Is that last one an Obedient plant @CarolineL ?

 

Asclepias curassavica First time growing it ... in a Brugmansia pot

 

@Bluejayway no, its the third (unidentified) linaria. Much smaller flowers than obedient plant and finer foliage. Also very floppy (especially in the heavy rain we're having). But flowers for ages and the bees love it

 

I do @shiney, good to see your range . They are the easiest and most dependable plants in my garden - good on dry, sandy soil, drought tolerant, slug and pest free and low maintenance. Plus, they look good, particularly at this time of year with their luminosity in the low light.

 

It didn't flower at all in the spring when it was supposed to, but better late than never. Am not convinced it is Elata it was sold as, because the flowers have a mauvy hue instead of being electric blue, but I'll take it gratefully!

 

My Cosmos and Michaelmas daisies survived last night's storm: The Cosmos grew wiry in the hot summer so stood up better I think. Rudbeckia looks ok too:

 

Took a few pix recently
Acer Orangeola


Sweet Pea 'Balmoral'


All the oranges/yellows are doing their best to brighten the grey skies we've had a lot of recently.Mostly around and beside the pond
Annual Rudbeckias


Native primulas


The free Achillea I got in spring - should have been A. Terracotta


Hakonechloa and Heucheras


and finally the flowering Rocket, which the bees love

 

Hibiscus moscheatus - bought as plugs this spring
