I am a gardening ignoramus. I know nothing about plants at all. And now I am (jointly) in charge of an old-fashioned garden with proper herbaceous borders filled with pretty flowers that are coming out in an impressively sequential manner. I don’t know what any of them are and I think it might be good to know. At least if I know their names I might feel like I was vaguely in charge.
So here are some pictures of some of the current garden beauties. If you can tell me what they are I’d be very happy.
-
- This shrub has pretty white flowers
-
- Lots of gorgeous stuff here. I’d love to know what it all is.
-
- I like these pointy flowers, but I’m sure that’s not the proper name for them.
-
- Gorgeous purple. What are they?
-
- Pretty pink flowers. Also nameless in the Vicarage.
-
- I’m really hoping these are strawberries. But the flowers are pink.
