The week beginning
June 18

In the show garden...

One of my favorite combinations in the show garden is this 'Lorraine Sunshine" Heliopsis and the 'Black Negligee' Cimicifuga.

 

Fiesta!

There are still some great hanging baskets left including these 'Fiesta Sparkler Salmon' double impatiens.

 

 Cool Colours...

For something different in the way of colour, try the 'Fire and Ice' hosta or the Alpine Sea Holly.

 

 Behind the scenes...

Staff are still working hard on an amazing breadth of tasks: from answering inumerable questions in the call centre, building self-contained watergardens out of oak barrels, to shipping water barrels to High Level.

 

A tisket...

Thes terrific wood baskets are perfect for collecting posies.

 

 Smokey...

One of the more eye-catching shrubs inthe nursery are these Smoke Trees..

 

 Water plants

There is still an amazing selection of water plants available for all the water garden enthusiasts. And next weekend there will also be a special Koi sale in the show garden.

 

 Ladybug...

...watering cans are here and awill make a perfect gift.

 

 Tomatoes...

There are lots of tumbler tomatoes available laden with fruit; or try one of the traditional varieties in the 5 gallon pots.

 

 Let the games begin...

This hanging basket is just one of hundreds that Hole's will be providing for the 2001 International Championships in Athletics this August.
