Prized by gardeners for its slender spikes of pink, tubular flowers, Veronica longifolia 'Pink Eveline' (Garden Speedwell) never fails at providing a great display in the summer garden. Extremely showy, the flowers open from the base upward from early to late summer. These elegant inflorescences are very decorative and are nicely complemented by the foliage of lance-shaped, bright green leaves. If cut back after flowering, it may bloom again in late summer or early fall. A good garden performer, this compact Speedwell selection is ideal near border edges, in containers and the rock garden.
Despite this summer’s unusually hot and dry conditions, things are looking pretty good here at Hayefield.
Untitled print of a ruin in Peru. This print originates from 'Die Kunstwerke vom Alterthum bis auf die Gegenwart, oder, Wegweiser durch das ganze Gebiet der bildenden Kunst : enthaltend diejenigen Werke der Baukunst, Malerei und Bildhauerei, welche die verschiedenen Perioden, Style und Schulen der Kunst am bestimmtesten charakterisisieren' by C. A. Menzel. Artists and engravers: Author: Carl August Menzel. Condition: good, general age-related toning. Please study image carefully. Date: 1857 Overall size: 25.8 x 21 cm. Image size: 20.5 x 15.2 cm. Antique prints have long been appreciated for both their aesthetic and investment value. They were the product of engraved, etched or lithographed plates. These plates were handmade out of wood or metal, which required an incredible level of skill, patience and craftsmanship. Whether you have a house with Victorian furniture or more contemporary decor an old engraving can enhance your living space. We offer a wide range of authentic antique prints for any budget.

Forming a cloud of misty lavender flowers that dangle from wiry stems above lacy foliage, this meadow rue has a dream-like effect in the garden. This is a tall, airy plant that grows 3-5’ in height, spaced 2-3’ apart. Perennial in USDA Hardiness Zones 4-7, it prefers half sun/half shade. Blooms from mid-summer to early fall. Seed sowing instructions: This seed has been primed and should not need to be cold stratified. Sow seed indoors 6-8 weeks before last frost date on the surface of a moistened, good seed-starting mix. Cover seed lightly with fine grit or seed-starting mix, provide light and keep moist, in warm temperatures, 70-75 degrees F. They can then be transplanted out when large enough to handle and temperatures stay above freezing. **Note: If seed does not germinate in warmth in 2 weeks, cold stratify it for 2 weeks in a cold garage or refrigerator. Place cell packs in ziploc plastic bags to stay moist while cold stratifying. Remove and return to light and warmth for germination. All seed counts are approximate, but we strive to overfill pkts. Seed hand counted We only ship to the 50 states in the U.S.A. If ordered outside the United States the order will be canceled.

Die allerletzten Blüten der Chrysanthemen erscheinen noch nach dem ersten Frost. Die großen Blütenbüsche, die schon Ende August in den Handel kommen, sind zur Massenware geworden.

Hello! I just wanted to pop-on and share my end-of-season garden with you. The fall has never been my garden's best look, and I thought why not show the good and the bad. It's the month of August where I usually give up on weeding and giving general craps about yard work, and it shows. There's always too many end-of-summer obligations and fun party times - weeding and garden maintenance is the first thing to get left in the dust.
It’s somewhat unfair that the garden here starts to look really good just as the very first signs of season’s end appear: touches of fall color here and there, the constellation Orion p…

If I were not committed to my darling man, if I were single and allowed to sneak a few naughty glances at other men every now and then, I think I should have a small crush on Monty Don. Robert Redford too, but Monty is rather special. Anyone who gets emotional about gardens is a man to love, in my opinion. Tonight, I just happened to turn the TV on when Monty's BBC show Italian Gardens was on. Did you happen to see the show? He was on his way to the Gardens of Ninfa, near Rome. He claims that out of all the gardens he's visited in the world – and our Monty has been to a LOT – Ninfa is his favourite. It is, he said, the most romantic garden, anywhere on earth. Tall call Mont. Raised eyebrow there. But as the show went on, I had to agree with him. It did indeed look fairly magical. Perhaps even more than Sissinghurst. The Gardens of Ninfa are in fact a ruined medieval town, which once consisted of a castle, 7 churches, 14 towers, mills, 150 houses and 2000 villagers. Ruined by plague and malaria it was left abandoned for six centuries. Six centuries. Then, in 1905, it was saved by two dedicated gardeners: an Italian price and his sister-in-law Marguerite. Together, they cleared the undergrowth and set about creating an idyll in the Italian countryside. You can still see the ruined remnants of the village – the "melancholy decay" as Monty calls it – but it's part of a wider, horticultural mise-on-scene of lovely rivers, dangling wisteria, spectacular roses and wandering paths. And views. Views that will make your heart stop. Views that will make you believe God really does exist, there among the climbing roses and the stone archways. "I think that the secret of Ninfa, as with all truly great gardens, is that it enlarges us. You go to admire and enjoy, but you come out with a whole new set of parameters with which to measure life. It is, quite simply, completely life enhancing". Monty Don. Here is the YouTube clip, should you be interested. It's a lovely piece of television. Monty's sonorous voice is the gardener's equivalent of Barry White's songs. I could listen to it for hours. Better than meditation, really. www.youtube.com/watch?v=UGEjoVlCj6A Now I haven't been to as many gardens as Monty, but here are my favourites, out of the few I have had the privilege of visiting. 1. Villandry, France. The most extraordinary garden I've ever seen. (I shall look forward to seeing whether Ninfa is as good.) 2. Prieuré d'Orsan, France. Another beautiful, beautiful garden. The garden architecture in this garden alone is worth the trek down to Berry. 3. Sissinghurst, Kent, England (above). The history of the Sackville-West and Nicholson families is as extraordinary as the garden. 2. Bunny Williams' Connecticut Garden. I flew across the world to see this garden. It was worth it. (See the post from earlier this year.) 3. Barnsley House. Rosemery Verey's former home and garden, which you can now stay in. The Potting Shed (a luxurious hideaway) is one of the prettiest places you will ever sleep in. It even has its own small garden, and is also attached to the famous potager so you can wander around that in your PJs at twilight after the crowds have left. 4. The gardens of Lake Como. I'll try and do a post on these in the next few weeks. I'm considering organising a garden tour next year, perhaps in May? I thought it might be a lovely way for garden-loving bloggers to get together? Do email me if you're interested and I'll try and set something up. Several extraordinary Australian gardeners I know have expressed interest, so perhaps we could bundle a group of lively, fun-loving travellers together and use our collective contacts to see a few of England's most glorious gardens?
