Just had to take pictures of these beautiful cobwebs - fortunately were in the garden rather than the pathway - lucky as I usually get a face full of cobwebs.

This is such a prolific rose - lovely colour and perfume.
| Echinops - Veitch's Blue (Globe Thistle) |
I love this globe thistle - spreads well, but not invasive.

Can't wait for autumn - favourite time of the year. That's when I do most of my gardening - wander in the garden, first thing in the morning coffee cup in hand - in the fog - love it!!
And we have snow snow and snow.
ReplyDeleteAny frangipani or hydrangea bushes??????
Very lovely roses........
That globe thistle is beautiful! I absolutely love the color. And your roses are stunning. No garden while I am here in Rome, so I will just have to admire yours :)
ReplyDeleteI have to get a globe thistle! So amazing. Ive been in denial about my gardening. Again. I ran into a spiderweb last night though but I kind of love spiders.
ReplyDeleteI smelt something fantastic on my walk tonight. I bet you would know what it was. Im thinking Daphne is out right now isnt it?
Beautiful images, x
No, sorry, the daphne's flowering season in winter, spring, but it could be the mock oranges, which are in flower now. Mine is a hedge and it just flowering. Not sure what it would be, but a walk sounds good!! Need to get back into walking, but the hot weather stops me, as well as a number of other things.
ReplyDeleteHi Joanne - I'd love a bit of snow right about now - so humid here and cyclone Vasi is ready to hit Townsville - up North have had it so bad lately - hope everyone is safe.
ReplyDeleteHi Maggie - I guess not many gardens in Rome, except near Villa Borghese - have you been to the Villa? It's amazing. Cheers from Australia.
ReplyDeleteThe Orb spiders make such spectacular webs don't they? I took photos the other night of one in my garden with the spider in the centre.
