way there will be some people who don t understand the delight and the agony of sharing your life with a four legged friend it is undoubtedly worth it but at times like this it seems otherwise the cost of loving sometimes seems too harsh i hope you are in a better place maggie moo eating roast potatoes and gravy we will miss you lovely girl posted by offtheedgegardening july 18 2026 posted in

inspection at blaen cwmdu farm did not go well today i was left with more concerns than ever for our ngs september opening i m sure this will not be the last time i will feel this way in fact it is probably healthy torture is traditional in the lead up to the big open day becoming incrementally more painful as the weeks pass by remind me again why we are doing this the problem is that everything is looking too good despite the weather or perhaps because of it everything is flowering well and early too well too early by late summer early autumn surely all will be spent exhausted shadows of their former selves husks desolation and weeping gardeners are all that will remain to entertain our visitors of course all is not lost i have been trying my best to combat the dreadful prospect of public ridicule dead heading of course i ve also been chopping back perennials as soon as the last bloom even thinks about fading then feeding and watering well in the hope that they will feel fit to perform an encore we also have plenty of late seasoners including salvias and dahlias ornamental grasses and foliage plants which should provide plenty of interest just in case i will also practice my cartwheels and tap dancing in the slim chance that a diversion is needed the cardoon s violet flat top is in full flower for the first time and will by september have morphed into a stand of tanned sculptural thistles earlier i went looking for an apian photo opportunity knowing they are catnip for bees trying to angle my phone to capture the ecstatic insects i noticed something unfamiliar fluttering in the corner of my sightline a hummingbird hawk moth i was absolutely thrilled i felt honoured by this apparent approval from a hhm and it was also a reminder that this is a garden teeming with life supported by our planting and the wild areas that surround the more formal places it occurred to me that this is far more important in the scheme of things this is why we do it the fear of what is or what is not flowering in nine weeks time must not sully my time in the garden it is good now far from perfect but we have come a long way and i ve always found perfect to be boring by september it will be splendid and if for some reason is isn t then i m sure the cake will be wonderful posted by offtheedgegardening july 13 2026 posted in blaen cwmdu farm national garden scheme welsh wales tags blaen cwmdu farm cardoon hummingbird hawk moth national garden scheme 9 comments on national garden scheme concerns six on saturday here we go again on a personal level it is hard to be a gardener in this weather relentless watering whilst attempting to be frugal with supplies relentless rehydrating of not only plants but self skulking in the shadows as much as possible worrying about which plants will survive and if precious ones will succumb wondering exactly what constitutes a client s definition of i ve done the watering on a world level it is scary stuff what we are experiencing here at the moment is so much more than just a few uncomfortable nights and waterers elbow we are on fire and it is only going to get worse plant more adaptable plants they say unicorns that can cope with excessive winter wet and extreme summer temperatures and drought no talk of soothing our affliction by planting shade trees baning plastic grass reducing our greedy consumption some are griping about not being able to wash the car with a hosepipe let me tell you that is going to be least of your problems time to look on the bright side it is going to be tricky today but i will do my best if you want to see how other gardeners are coping with their particular lots pop over to jim at garden rumination for some more positive messages ever optimistic nasturtium i spotted this one lurking in the shadows when i was putting the washing out this morning it doesn t look quite so special as i thought the teeth look splendid though these pretty pinks again don t appear quite the same as the image in my head or indeed in my eye there are far too many teasels in this garden they are oh s favourites he is greatly looking forward to the return of the goldfinches i have often surreptitiously culled them still they dominate still they come up still i weed them in true wildlife photographer style i waited patiently for a bee to come and pose on this flower after 30 seconds i got bored you will have to use your imagination tagetes fabulous makes me feel a little better other worldly intriguing wonderful your name is eucomis i grew this dahlia coccinea var palmeri from seed last year it over wintered well and has begun to flower i do love an orange flower today i watched swifts carousing above the garden joining the house martins that have been in town for a few months now they were enjoying the insects that our full to bursting garden have encouraged today i publically bemoaned the obsessive mowing on the estate where previously meadows had been allowed to thrive there is so much we can do we must keep keeping on lighthearted fun filled gill is having a break at the moment hopefully she will be back next week posted by offtheedgegardening july 10 2026 july 11

here we go again lost and found i hold my hand up my name is gill and i am a plantaholic our garden is very small and juvenille just three years old already it is packed to the gunnels perhaps a little over the gunnels there are plants in the borders in terracotta pots in horrid plastic pots in a barrel plants waiting to go in the ground or to be potted on some waiting to go to clients plants in the greenhouse some in the narrow strip at the front of the house and down the side in the resting holding area plants absolutely everywhere but still it is not enough there is a self inflicted duty of care however all these lovelies should be cared for and nurtured often i fall a little short of the mark my memory is just fine where most of the garden residents are concerned but occasionally i will wake in the night and think whatever happened to i have been mourning the loss of fuchsia fulgens a plant that i grew and loved at cliffe and managed to source again last year it did well in its new home and flowered beautifully i just couldn t believe that i didn t have winter cossetted backups but then again it could have slipped through the net must try harder it is time to introduce you to one of my horti drug dealers alan from alan s tropical plants from whom i have in the past satiated my need if only temporarily on wednesday i was taking a sneaky look on his website and fuchsia fulgens was in stock as this was where i had got my last specimen one click and it was in my basket no harm in taking a look at what else tickled my fancy oh dear it seems a lot i took a deep breath deleted more than half whilst gently weeping and pressed buy friday returning from watering the greenhouse a virtual spotlight highlighted a fuchsia fulgens esque plant in a group of pots i peered closer and low and behold a very healthy looking just about to flower ff had been hiding in plain sight for weeks i had been confusing it with another fuchsia silly gilly on the off chance that my order was not quite set in stone i emailed alan to confess my stupidity and asked whether or not i could swap out ff for something else luckily i had a long list of suggestions that had earlier been deleted from my shopping list very quickly i had a reply no problem which substitute would you like more decisions i plumped on a salvia a gal can never have too many salvias this morning a cheery knock at the door behind which was the smiling face of paul the delivery driver presenting me with a beautiful box of goodies and what is more alan popped in a freebie from my previous list the worth of these fine folk and all those like them should be sung from the rooftops healthy happy plants slightly left field selection fantastic service local business and reasonable prices when compared with many other often large and corporate concerns they are crossing the finishing line whilst the rest are lagging behind studying their profits i am very happy i came across alan s nursery i am yet to visit in person it is not too far away but it is definitely on the cards there is no doubt that i will be back on line having a look just in case there is something i fancy i also have no doubt that there will be as to what these new acquisitions are you will have to wait to find out for the moment the itch has been scratched it can t last posted by offtheedgegardening july 5 2026

mainly good often mundane in my fleeting absence did i miss anything at this time of year the weeks fly by in a blur i m not keen on this seasonal hyperdrive why should these summer days be will o the wisps when the inclement one are extended it seems cruel let us get on before we know it it will be next week if you wish to know more about six on saturday then pop over to jim s manor and all will be revealed francoa sonchifolia has popped its head through the chaos known as the bed of anarchy top marks i lost quite a few bits and bobs last winter one of which was digitalis isabelliana bella as a grown up and very sensible gardener i had a cutting in the relative safety of the greenhouse this survivor is now flowering it is not offering up any propagation material i probably should remove this bloom and let it bulk up not so much the grown up now am i another fabulous daylily hemerocallis yabba dabba doo i am rather fond of dark dark flowers did i ever know the name of this watsonia possibly does it need dividing definitely tulbaghia cominsii is new to the garden this year i wasn t sure that it would flower but i m very pleased that it did i m thrilled that the colquhounia

saturday did i miss anything six on saturday pottering i think it was a good week i can t remember it being anything other than that i did some gardening some not gardening rained off and some peripheral stuff no drama just pottering along which is fine by me although perhaps a little boring for you if you would like to join the six on saturday society the first 50 years are subscription free or just have a nose at what is happening in a select group of gardens across the world then pop over to jim at garden ruminations let us get on i cannot pretend that i bought pelargonium crocodile for was any other reason than its wonderful name it turns out that not only does it have the most intriguing foliage the flowers are the clearest candy pink that you ever did see sometimes things work out for the best the hairy seedpods of meconopsis lingholm are looking promising i must be ever vigilant and catch them at the perfect moment chances where there is a will there is a way salvia nachtvlinder has squeezed through the lemon verbena and broussonetia papyrifer to find the light of day darwin would have been proud a new addition is this little sorrel red lava pretty and tasty i m not going to say like me although i am very tempted the label on this little beauty is long gone i m going to call it rhodohypoxis baurii which is a half guess whatever its name it has lastest well this year flowering for far longer than usual a great joy in my horti year is when the daylilies begin to flower this is also the time when i recommend pollie for anyone who wants to dive into the spectacular world that she inhabits i came home from a day away to find hemerocallis nona s garnet making its annual appearance it was a halt you in your tracks moment fabulous there we have

cwndu september ngs opening date the summer solstice looms reminding us all to clearly of the inevitable decent into autumn i hate midsummer perhaps hate is too strong a word but it certainly unsettles me the switch in my head flips from all is possible to all is unlikely things seem a little bit more complicated i often think it unfair to label our garden adversaries as pests they are just doing what they can to survive in this world just as we are we should try to live in harmony then the slugs eat the beans and the aphids infest all the caterpillars eat the verbascum and my rose tinted glasses tumble to the ground and are stamped upon suddenly it all seems a little bit more difficult then a rose such as this begins to bloom and i realise that perhaps things aren t so bad after all we are all in the same boat wins and losses success and failure we are in the lap of the horti gods it generally evens out in the end what will be will be please keep reminding me posted by
