    Unlikely Gardens in Birmingham.

    I wonder how many unlikely gardens exist in Birmingham? By that I mean gardens of any size that may be on balconies of flats, small gardens, back yards. Gardens of properties that are right in the heart of Birmingham even. Gardens of any size at all.

    A well deserved award to David Olusoga

    Surely there must be something. It would be a great programme. There never seems to be many historical programmes about Birmingham. Peaky Blinders was a real treat, it raised interest in Birmingham history.

    I like this presenter. He's very professional and impartial. I think I've watched all of 'a house through time', be great if he concentrated in a Birmingham property.

    I hope the hail storm stays away. I don't want my plants to get damaged!

    This Astilbe was from a supermarket, bought it last year. Looks lovely this year, I'm very pleased with it. Lovely colour.

    This country is amazing. And when we get the weather it's just wonderful.

    Thank you, my garden is not much more than a corner, but it's big enough.

    Thanks for the resizing info, I did a 1200 and it appears to have worked.

    Loads of rain here overnight. I'm trying to attach a pic, but it says too large for the server.

    The bourganvillia is full of flowers now! I find that even in the warmer weather, if I put them in my south facing window ledge for a week, this encourages flowers.

    I have two similar roses, same colours. They struggle, but the opposite way round to how yours struggle.

    Lady P, that's so annoying when the weather causes destruction. A few years ago we had a hail storm, it pur gigantic holes in my hydrangea, I never got it right again.

    Oh Lady P, so sorry, just re-read your post. I thought you meant you'd cut the best of the roses before the storm. Oh no, I hope there's not too much damage, that's so annoying. Sorry I misunderstood x

    Good Idea taking the blooms off. I've only just got into Rose's, I will remember that!

    Just started to rain here. Cooler day today. Just some dead heading and watering for me today in the garden. My honeysuckle has lots of flowers, I put two different colours in one pot and they are growing over a cane frame.
