This collection of images were taken at the end of June and beginning of July and show various growth rates of plants and flowers in the garden. During this time I have been constructing a new raised bed at the back of the garden that mainly houses bamboos that were outgrowing their pots. The new raised bed is probably too small for the amount of bamboo planted there but we intend to get rid of at least one by next year. If only we had realised the epic proportions of certain bamboos when we bought them!! Phyllostachys nigra will be the first to go so if anyone is interested in it please feel free to get in touch, we don't want much for it especially as it is too big to post or transport by ourselves.
