There are so many summer flowers still out around here. Although the weather has been dismal some days, there's plenty of brightness in the gardens.
Some flowers don't seem to know what season it is. Earlier I walked home from the newsagent and saw a lovely bed of snowdrops in bloom.

Any flowers out near you?

sweet peas & Narcisuss in the same tub, anemone and roses, carnations (3 different types of) chrysanthamum and dahlia.

That's in a garden that is not cared for properly.
Amazing..

My viburnum has been flowering for weeks, and I picked my last sweet pea a few days ago, unless another one has appeared and I haven't noticed, don't like to pull them out of the tub yet.

Still loads of flowers around.The snowdrops are really lovely now.

Earlier I was out walking locally and saw many sorts including antirrhinum, marigolds, hydrangea, geranium, love-in-the-mist,blue cornflowers and many more with names I'm not sure about.

How much longer will they last, I wonder.

We have plants in patio pots - dont know what they are called by still flowering, might be geraniums lol
