Continuing summer colour
Summer colour continues across the garden too. In the rose garden, the Rosa 'Bonica' enjoys a second flush in the late summer sun. With its compact clusters of dainty shell pink flowers and glossy leaves, it stands out within the garden. Dotted through the borders and lining the paths are delicate Japanese anemones, golden Rudbeckia ‘Herbstonne’, bright cosmos and purple catmint. These, along with the small, dainty flowers of the ‘Rozanne’ and ‘Dusky rose’ geraniums in the top border, are a magnet for bees and butterflies. As the final days of summer arrive, the vivid scarlet and purple flowers of the ‘Mrs Popple’ fuchsia start to blossom, edging the paths to the tea-garden with bright, cheery colour.
