Friday flowers...after the rain

I took these pics yesterday morning. It seems it had been raining the night before, but I don't remember it, despite getting up to Molly twice. Once for fresh water and the other so she could sit on the front verandah and ponder life for a bit. 3.28am is not the best time to do that Molly.

I am quite surprised that my clematis is flowering again. I didn't expect a second flush. These are smaller but still so pretty.

My David Austin roses were full of rain, many with their heads all tipped over. Above is Benjamin Britton, an almost neon pink.

Heavy heads of Lady of Megginch above and below is Jubilee Celebration.

Happy Friday peeps.

Have a good one

ps thank you for your well wishes for Molly and her dicky knee. I have taken your advice and started her on fish oil. Back to the vet on Tuesday for another shot :)

Friday flowers on a Thursday

My other beautiful clematis, called Lord Neville, a day early for Friday Flowers. It's my mum's birthday today so I thought I'd post early for her. 

I thought this plant had died last year so was surprised to see little shoots of green and buds! It's a beauty. The flowers are huge.

Happy Birthday Mum xx

My new clematis

This is my lovely new clematis, Pink Champagne, that came home with me the other day when I popped into the hardware store. It's only a small plant so I've planted it at the base of an obelisk thingy with the Pierre de Ronsard rose. How pretty and I love it's name too!

ps. how weird is it that I accidentally published this post the other day and then deleted it but I just saw it in Fun & Vj's blogroll? So, here is it now, published. Confusing much?
