But on my way to feed the fish yesterday I got struck by the 'blues' on the raised beds by the koi pond area. They are looking extra good and extra blue. Here they are...
Celmisia spectabilis flowering away with their daisy like blooms.
Along with the cute ones from this Saxifrage
Ozothamnus rosmarinifolius 'Silver Jubilee' is a new one for this year and seem to be settling in nicely
No blooms yet but foliage good enough - Celmisia hookeri
The tiny, alpine Ozothamnus selago
Nolina microcarpa
Yucca linearifolia (var. Galeana?)
Chamaerops humilis var. cerifera
Small but packs a very blue punch! Yucca rostrata
No blooms yet but I'm happy enough with its glaucous foliage - Kniphofia northiae
New foliage and flower buds are so light blue it's almost white! Pachystegia insignis
Row of Agave americana var. medio-picta 'Alba' with Brachyglottis 'Walberton's Silver Dormouse' at the back
It's been a rainy weekend so far but the forecast tomorrow is much better with light cloud cover and sunny spells. Good enough to be able to do lots of gardening still for the remainder of the weekend.Hope you're having a fabulous one so far!
Mark :-)
