Looking good at the back

The Rosa complicata is just starting to flower. I need to prune it better next time.

Foxgloves are everywhere, but that’s fine.

This cardoon is now six feet tall, and unsupported. I suppose that’s asking for trouble. We’ll see.

This osteospermum is the only one of the four I’ve planted that’s survived. Odd, considering how well it does in other gardens round here.
