This week in my garden.....





my Salvia patens 'Cambridge Blue' is putting on a real show. I have it in a tub with another tender perennial whose name I forget and which has flowers like butterflies.

The other stars at the moment are also both blue, the gorgeous trailing Convolvulus mauritanica

and the blue Laurentia axillaris formerly known as Isotoma. The scent of the Laurentia is exactly like that of Bluebells only a few months too late!

That Laurentia axillaris looks really pretty and I like the idea of the bluebell scent!

Brushed past it this morning and it was lovely, like a breath of Spring.
