Springtime In My Garden (3 May 2004).

by MarvintheMartian - last update: May 4, 2004

The purple azaelia

Azaelia
Early May and it's in full bloom.
The Clematis

Clematis Montana

This climbing clematis started life as a couple of twigs about 5 years ago. It's going for a take over bid of the fence now... and then the world (ha ha ha)!!
The rockery.

Little Flowers

Various flowering things in my rockery.
Apple Blossom

The apple tree

Tiny little apple tree, never grows much, but does blossom nicely and produces about 6 decent apples a year!!
More Clematus

Another one of the Clematus

Looking good this year.
More little flowers

Little Red Flowers

I wish I could remember the name, I'm sure my mum will take one look and tell me (Latin and English names no doubt!).
These plants are great for ground coverage and then in the spring and early summer just throw up tonnes of little red flowers.

UPDATE!!
From my Mum:
"OK Martin your little red flower is I think called Heuchera possibly Red Spangles."
Forest Flame

Forest Flame

This hasn't done much in the last four years, but really went for it this year with a tonne of new red growth. Just going over now and turning green.
