Deck 'Garden'

Our garden isn't really happening this year, as so many of the flower beds are sitting empty while we CONTINUE to wait for the builders to turn up. (It's now been seven weeks since they said they'd come and fix our shed. But I digress.)

In the interim, we've tried to make our deck look nice, at least. Some of our flowers, like the poppies, responded disastrously to being dug up and plonked into pots (i.e. they died). But a few have done OK. The delphiniums, in particular, look marvellous. They have been at their height (literally!) these last two weeks. Along with the salvia, dahlias and nasturtiums also in planters, the deck looked rather nice when I took these pics on Thursday:




Glad I took these photos when I did, because the heavy rain of the last two days have beaten the delphiniums into near-oblivion. *grumbles*
