Sweetpeas, Gladioli and Agapanthus

1   In our garden, I have the very tall pan-stand that was in the kitchen since I was a little girl. We used it ourselves for pans in our last house but have no room for it now. Last year I grew the runner beans up it but they really needed more light so this year we have the Sweet peas climbing up it and they are doing well. Mum would have loved the idea!

2   The Gladioli are a lovely soft yellow colour that brightens up a darkish corner.

3   Our Agapanthus seem way behind everyone else’s but they are coming at last and are a beautiful, rich dark purply blue which I love.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Focus – on ice-cream

Just thought this might appeal, the important item, the ice-cream, being in focus, with St Michael’s Mount behind and all out of focus!
