When bees hum in the linden tree
And roses bloom in cottage plots,
Along the brookside banks we see
the blue wild forget-me-nots.
Patience Strong.
Myosotis, pink forget-me-nots
Primula denticulata, lilac drumstick primula
Primula denticulata, pink drumstick primula
Sorbus cashmiriana, the Kashmir rowan 
Sambucus aurea 'Sutherland's Gold', the golden elder
Berberis darwinii, the barberry shrub
Chaenomeles japonica, the flowering quince
Fragrant white and yellow narcissi
Golden trumpet narcissi

Graet photo's!
Thanks for the tip re the bees!
Do you know anything about honeysuckle? We planted one last week, but now the leaves are turning black and droopy. Could this be overwatering? We can't find this problem in our gardening books!

Very nice pictures, especially the Sambuca so artistic.nnnand the quince is so pretty is it in floribus now?
All so pretty. I love the drumstick primulas especially.
b.t.bear esq...I have heard of verticillium wilt in honeysuckle. This is info on the web about it... http://www.ipm.iastate.edu/ipm/hortnews/1998/3-13-1998/verticil.html
Thanks for your visit.
tyra, thanks for introducing yourself. The quince is exactly as it is in the photo as I just took the picture yesterday.
Ruth, I love the drumsticks too. Thanks for your comments.
Oh dear!
Yes, it does sound like a fungus.
We had rust on some chrysanthemums on this site last year, so I suppose it might be still in the soil.....
Thank you for the link!
