Mid-May is one of the most wonderful months in the English Garden calendar. Join us for a look around this English Farm garden in Norfolk England on a beautiful summer early morning garden tour.
Thank you they are one of our favourites we’ve been collecting them for years . We’ve decided to put a new iris bed in as we acquired a new variety of iris yesterday
So very beautiful! The space is much happier as a garden than as a pool. How do you propagate your geraniums? Seed, divide, or root cuttings? This year, my iris has bloomed better than they ever have. With some, I'd forgotten about. My catmint that I divided last year has exploded with growth also, and are bigger than before.
It’s a wonderful year the mild winter, wet spring and now the sunshine means everything is looking wonderful in garden. It sounds like you are having lots of success to Kathleen . We propagate the hardy geraniums by splitting them in spring . Lots of them also seem to self seed .
We used to have a garden on very heavy clay and the daisies still grew there . You can always add some compost and grit to the borders to improve drainage and add nutrients
@@gardenerscottageblakeney1316 It's the fertility, it's too fertile on clayey loam here, they grow too much then flop over, the sandy soil is perfect as it's nutrient deficient, which is perfect for most wildflowers. Red poppies grow to about 4ft then fall over in my soil, same with cornflowers, and wildflowers. Noticed those pots tho, think I might try that with the daisies.
Absolutely gorgeous!
Thank you! 😊
Your garden is so peaceful, absolutely gorgeous.
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed seeing it
Love the irises.

I believe we both are having successes! Thank you for the propagating tip!
I'd love to try those daisies, but I dare not in my clayey loam soil, they'd flop all over the place with the lightest shower.
