Anyone else noticed that theirs is doing particularly well this year? I've
never seen ours so well covered in flowers and it's put on a lot of new
growth, too. I'm wondering if it's the very severe cutting back it got last
year for the seriously cold spell we had. Perhaps it responds best to
brutal treatment!
I've no idea which it is as it was planted long ago but it's a deep coral
colour.

Yes, I noticed only this morning how flowerful mine is.

The other plant that is better this year than I can remember it ever
being is the Pulmonaria, the garden is full of it and so many flowers.

Yes, even the usually rather puny white flowered one.


Mine's in the pink of condition.

No need for you to feel blue about it, then.
