Det hvide bed - the white bed
Det hvide bed er ved at ligne noget efterhånden. Græsset (Miscanthus?) og perlekurv (Anaphalis triplinervis) fylder godt lige nu, og Anemone Honorine Jobert er ved at være veletableret. Takket være den hårde vinter har sommerfuglebusken ikke fyldt så meget som jeg havde håbet, men den bliver også større år for år. Ellers er der forskellige knolde og løg (senest har jeg sat en af mine yndlingsblomster, nikkende fuglemælk, Ornithogalum nutans, og må de lede små mosegrise lade den være i fred!). Tidlig sommer har budt på hvid løjtenantshjerte (Dicentra spectabilis Alba), jakobsstige (Polemoneum caereuleum Alba) og liljekonvaller (Convallaria majalis), der bliver afløst af Silene og Scabiosa.
The white bed is gradually taking form. The variegated grass (Miscanthus?) and Pearl everlasting (Anaphalis triplinervis) are filling out well, and Anemone Honorine Jobert is settling in nicely. Due to the last hard winter the Buddleia hasn't grown as large as I'd hoped, but it's still getting larger each year. Apart from those plants there are several spring bulbs (my latest addition has been Ornithogalum nutans, one of my favourite plants, and I sincerely hope they survive the rapacious water voles!). Early Summer was time for Dicentra spectabilis Alba, Polemoneum caereuleum Alba and lily-of-the-valley (Convallaria majalis), which have been followed by Silene and Scabiosa.
