After three weeks of looking at lush tropical greens, it is wonderful to return to the blue and purple in my garden. The deep blue bearded iris is outstanding and as I have planted them in different parts of the garden it is providing the colours to contrast the white blossoms of the Manchurian pear. Different coloured hyacinths have opened up but this purplish mauve one looks stunning. I have left the hardenbergia in a pot, allowing it to climb on a support. Then there is the masses of violets. At the moment I don't mind its invasive nature as I am seeing the cheerful flowers all over the garden. Once the flowering stops in summer I will thin out the different patches.
