At he moment my garden is more green than blooming. When we moved here, there were no plants, no hedges, no nothing, only lawn in a bad condition. My aim was to bring green and different shades & shapes of foliage, and that’s what I have now.
It was a lovely August day today, and I was out in the garden replanting for hours. I feel thankful for my health and for the fact that I still have muscle power to dig, dig and dig! I’m thankful for my husband also, who helped me to clear from weeds and unwanted plants one spot in the garden. It is ready for planting - think of bare virgin soil! and the planting is going to happen tomorrow!
I don’t know the name of this Veronica, but it is beautiful, pretty high
and stands straight without support.
Clematis integrifolia ’Petit Faucon’ has bloomed for weeks.
It needs support and its seedheads are very decorative.
This cream white Aconitum looks really beautiful against the dark-leaved ’Diabolo’.
Behind also a row of Rodgersia aesculifolia.
Was plant shopping for the autumn recently...
Still some solitary rose blooming among the reddening rose hips...
This is Rosa rugosa ’Rotes Meer’.
This is Rosa rugosa ’Rotes Meer’.
Although plastic, this pair of ducks looks cute swimming in my garden pond :)

SO gorgeous!
VastaaPoistaWow!!!! What a beautiful post. So much color and floral beauty. Thank you for linking up today and I hope to see you again next Thursday!
VastaaPoistaAll the shades of green are beautiful, especially with some lavender and other colors to accent it! Love those cute ducks too. I checked out the Wabi Sabi book today from the library! I can't wait to start it tonight! Enjoy your day sweet friend!
VastaaPoistaThe nice thing about those ducks is they stay stationary so that you can get a good picture ;j))). Lovely restful greens ...just beautiful.
VastaaPoistaThanks for the kind inviation to visit.
VastaaPoistaYou can really enjoy such a beautiful garden!
Wunderschöne Impressionen aus Deinem Garten, liebe Riitta. Das viele Grün ist herrlich und die Clematis ist zauberhaft.

Beautiful flowers! Such a joy (and "pain" sometimes) to have a garden. We just have a little balcony, enough, though, to have a BBQ tonight - greetings to Finland!
VastaaPoistaWonderful flowers, no matter their color! It's winter here, so they are especially beautiful to me :)

Liebe Riitta,
VastaaPoistaWunderbar, der grüne Garten! Ich kämpfe nach wie vor so mit der Trockenheit, der Rasen ist an verschiedenen Stellen braun- da ist so ein sattes grün ein toller Anblick!
Liebe Grüße
