This week's #sixonsaturday, celebrates some of the fading past glory of the garden, appreciates the colour of the present and looks forward to the future Spring burst of bulbs and flowers in the pots and hanging baskets.

Back at The Botanics – Six on Saturday

Six on Saturday – In The Pink
For this week's Six on Saturday, I found an abundance of pink blooms dotted around the borders. It did surprise me that there was so much pink in the garden at this time year as I planned the flowering to slide from purple into red and yet, here we are with a plethora of pink!
A Bargain Six on Saturday
This is certainly the time of year for bargain hunting for plants in garden centres and I've been lucky this week!
Six on Saturday in Monsoon Season
The combination of heat and lots of rain has made the growth prolific and the whole garden is verging out of control! That said, there are always things to delight in the garden when you get out and look!
Squelching Into June

Six on Saturday for May
At this time of year everything is just about to burst forth into the glorious splendour of Summer so I thought it worth choosing a six this week from the flowers in the garden which are coming to their finales!

Wind, rain, wind, rain, flashes of sunshine, then more wind and rain in the garden this week! We have been battered by #StormGareth and his friends this week and yet, the garden still manages to amaze in its ability to be undefeated!
Six on Saturday to Welcome March
With the glorious Spring sunshine around this week, it felt positively tropical in Glasgow! Did you manage to get out into your garden?

It’s a Succulent Six on Saturday!
I'm a new convert to succulents, proving that an old dog really can learn new tricks as I think I might be falling in love with these low maintenance lovelies!
