August 24th to August 30th
Weather: A cool and showery week – not very summery
Liz Hall has some exotic late summer blooms to show
Kate van Heel has some fine late summer offerings
Judith Ladley loves her pots!
Container planted up at the start of lock-down – I love containers and mine seem to get bigger each year 
Another container mainly using Agastache ‘Golden Jubilee’ and coleus. Many people are sniffy about coleus but I find them useful for summer containers and usually take cuttings at this time of year and over-winter plants in a spare bedroom. 
Another container planted up at the start of lock-down mainly using heucheras . I really like blue containers and think they offset most plants quite well 
Another blue pot 
I called at a nursery yesterday to purchase some treatment for berberis sawfly caterpillars and came away with this lovely bergenia ciliata ‘Dumbo’. Didn’t find the insecticide.
