Sigh.

You can please some of the garden some of the time, the rest of the
garden some other time, but give up on pleasing all of the garden all

Lol! I know what you mean.

Here in the U.K. we have had the coldest winter for 50 years, followed by the warmest april for 350 years, AND the worst drought in over thirty years.

This has lead to alot of plants dying of stress over the last couple of months and the majority of the garden being over a month ahead, with tonnes of stuff blooming and going over even before the summer is here!

It's going to be interesting to see what happens in june, whether we are gonna get a dull period where no alot is flowering like you tend to in late july or early august?
