Well no, more of a White Boot! This is my selection of plants en route to the plant stall at Malvern Country Market on Friday. Shasta Daisies were accompanied by Verbascum chaixii album, Phlox White Admiral and Campanula alliariifolia, what a lovely view in my rear view mirror! Although white does seem to be a bit of a theme in the garden as well with the Myrtle in full bloom and looking absolutely beautiful. The bees love it too, as I discovered as I took some photos – luckily they were too busy on the flowers to want to sting me. Saponaria Alba Plena ‘Betty Arnold’ with double white flowers is just coming into bloom and well worth its place in our garden, although it does tend to pop up everywhere including the lawn. Traditional late summer colours are also to be found with dahlias, this one is seed raised Dahlia Bishop’s Children, Solidago and Eupatorium purpureum and Penstemons, the one pictured is Bodnant. Two new plants have found their way home today in the shape of Helenium Wagon Wheel and Chrysanthemum Clara Curtis, my priority now is to find a spot for them and then sit and enjoy the garden for a while!
A White Garden?
Tales from a Country Garden 
Myrtle is a favourite shrub, we have one growing outside the front door. Irene had some in her wedding bouquet, apparently the royal family always do from the one growing in Queen Victoria’s garden on the Isle of White. The shrub of love!

Myrtle is a real favourite, just have to watch our ‘children’ don’t drive into her as they exit the drive! Mind Myrtle is my catchphrase!
