July 2024 – GWENNIESGARDENWORLD

Here’s a peek in my garden, you can see how green everything is. The red flowers are crocosmia, also called montbretia. The picture of the red flowers under this text are a closer look at the crocosmia.

This is part of our front garden, I used to have more plants there but it was getting too much so we covered the front garden with small stones and a few very big ones. Now I have decorated it with a big pot of hardy fuchsia’s and I am going to plant rock garden plants to cover the small stones in time.

A few minutes later it was pouring with rain.

This is a parking we have in front of our house.

Same parking a few moments later.

Have a great week and take care ! Enjoy your garden whenever you can.

We still have no real summerweather, the temperatures are still going up and down and we still get rain quite often so most of the garden is still green, it’s beautiful but I miss my flowers. The roses had lots of flowers but the rain ruined them in no time. Some days are really hot and then it ends with a big bang and lots of rain and flooding all over Europe. But that is better than the countries who get bushfires and lots of people die cos of the horrible heath, sometimes even over 50C° !!

That said, here are just a few pictures I took this afternoon.

Crocosmia Lucifer, also called Montbretia with lots of buds.

Here the flowers are opening further.

This is my hydrangea, when you look close you can see that a lot of leafs have sunburn as the temperatures can vairy a lot from day to day.

Here you have a closer look at the hydrangea, butterfly included (lol)

This picture was made a few days earlier, one of my garden geraniums. Garden geraniums are always performing well, no matter the weather. They come in many colors and shapes and for me they are the best and easiest garden plants.
