The astilbe has only recently started to flower. It needed the occasional rain that we've had recently, I think; it's a plant for moist soils, often thriving in boggy terrain next to ponds:

The weekend before last we bought this fuchsia, lovely pink and purple pendulums and variegated foliage that livens up the border:


Finally, beautiful blue and purple morning glories - all the way from the south of France! We were given the seeds last summer by lovely belle-mere, and they seem to be flourishing although it's much less sunny here... Not this year, though! This is a very good UK summer! :)
