This bee is definitely living their best life right now. Its great to see so many different insects enjoying the garden and that I have provided them a habitat to come back each time to get what they need from it. Happy Gardening everyone 🌱 #bees #nature #insects #gardenlife #tuesday

Finally, after my third attempt, I have Echinacea Green Twister blooming. I have always wanted to grown these as I find the colouring, absolutely amazing. The flower are also bigger than I expected. Very much well worth the perseverance. Happy Gardening everyone 🌱 #echinacea #coneflower #perserverance #monday #gardenlife

Been in the garden and sorting out the shed. Its amazing how much rubbish you collect. A nice surprise today though. This Gladiolus has come into bloom. I have never had one of these in this colour, so its very welcome. Hoping you all have a great day, whatever you are doing. Happy Gardening everyone 🌱 #gladiolus #purple #flowers #mygarden #gardenlife

I think my Flamingo Tree needs a good pruning. Even the Lavatera is starting to grow and flower through the branches on the other side. I do love the way it has grown so well this year, but once the leaves fall off, I will have to cut it back and give it some shape.

Hope you are doing ok? My garden is in need of a little tidy up, which is what is planned for the weekend. One flower that is now in full bloom is this Rudbeckia Little Goldstar. All the bees and butterflies are loving the flowers which is always a bonus. Happy Gardening everyone 🌱 #rudbeckia #flowers #friday #mygarden #gardenlife

Happy Thursday 🌞 This beautiful Red Admiral spent ages feeding on my Honka Black Dahlia. Its such a privilege to see the pollinators in the garden, doing what they do best. It makes all the hard work and stress growing these flowers worth it. Happy Gardening everyone 🌱 #butterfly #redadmiral #nature #pollinators #flowers

A tiny surprise from my little hanging buckets. A Begonia Nonstop Rose Petticoat has now bloomed. A fabulous two tone flower, which I really like. I maybe should have planted this in a bigger pot, but we will see how it goes for now. I also love the rogue Viola growing at the back, which is very random. Happy Gardening everyone 🌱 #begonia #viola #hangingbaskets #gardenlife #gardening

Happy Tuesday 🌞 The Lillies are still going strong. I love the colour of this one and the fragrance is very intense. The flower is quite big as well, which is fabulous. The variety I think I Robina, but I cannot be certain. I don't think my garden would be complete with Lillies. Happy Gardening everyone 🌱 #lily #fragrance #tuesday #mygarden #flowers

Happy Monday 🌞 Yesterday was the day it decided to rain, all day. I don't think I have ever been more appreciative of the rain. It was much needed and my waterbutt is now full again. I have some more flowers to show from my front garden. Salvia Blue Begonia Bronze Leaf Osteospermum Yellow All three were rescue plants that had seemingly seen better days, but I have managed to revive them to show their true beauty. Have a great day. Happy Gardening everyone 🌱 #flowers #monday #gardenlife #colou

Happy Sunday 🌞 Hope you are all have a great weekend and enjoying your gardens? My front garden is starting to come into its own now with plenty of flowers in bloom. Just like these Begonia Yellow Picotee. This flower was trapped under the foliage, so I had to set it free. As you can see, its quite a big bloom. I will post more of the front garden next week. Happy Gardening everyone 🌱 #begonias #yellowflower #sunday #gardenlife #gardening

I was thinking, it was about time I did this. #aboutme #gardener #husband #father #son
