What’s been happening in Birchwood Garden? The task since the 2023 Open Garden Weekend has been to integrate Iris into the borders with other Spring superstars; and for them to coexist with the Liliums and the Summer perennials developing amidst them. Last year’s images show half the journey, I have moved Iris around a bit last Summer and can’t wait to see this year’s composition. Think I am just beginning to see the potential of Iris in “mixed beds”. Can you see the general idea? Open Garden this year is November 1-2.
Are Iris under utilised in “modern “ gardens? Can we do even more repeat plantings of Iris? Managing the drainage and ensuring enough light seem to be the biggest challenges so far, but I am going to push on with this theme. What do you think?

Have been looking for a large, tall purple aquilegia. I have a few but would love a stand out. Would love your ideas, if you know of any or can suggest a standout and hardy aquilegia that is purple.

Salvia canariensis candidissima had a tidy up and 50% cut back late June. Looking wonderful even though we had more than 100mms in July. It will be covered in flowers at the Open Garden 1-2 November.

Happy to say the key features of our Open Garden for Charity are in place. Feeling very grateful to three wonderful local businesses that have donated sponsorship funds to support our advertising. This is so important for the success of the Event. So a huge “Thank you” to Benalla Garden Supplies, Hide’s Bakery Benalla, and Benalla Travel. We are loyal and frequent customers of all three businesses and thoroughly recommend them to you. Can I ask you all to keep an eye out for my Posts and consider sharing them to your Followers? Thanks to these generous sponsors, I will be able to pay for some advertising on Instagram but personal referrals are super powerful. Haven’t had time to Post in the past 2 months as I have been all sorts of Iris, Peony, and Salvia projects in the garden. Also a busted drain pipe and an array of Summer challenges.
