A Humble Bungalow Garden Tour featuring Marigold The Mouse

If you follow me on Instagram you will have already met the charming and charismatic Marigold the Mouse...
If you are meeting her here for the first time you are going to be smitten by this wee little gal.
She is made by the talented artist Robyn who creates a myriad of wonderful creatures and features them on her Instagram page @williewoolly.
Here is the link to her website



Welcome to The Humble Bungalow Garden.


David Austin rose Gertrude Jekyll


A throne!
 Hosta Sum and Substance a HUGE specimen.


Sunbathing with a Calla Lily


Foxgloves


Solomon's Seal


Hanging out with the roses.


The Russell Lupines
faded a bit now but still standing...


Stop and smell the roses
this one is Iceberg a very vigorous climber.


The blooms are almost a big as Marigold!


Marigold looks like she's enjoying being the star of this tour.


Abraham Darby 
a stalwart David Austin rose
very fragrant and a repeat bloomer.


I think she's having a fun morning!


Jacob's Coat 
a superb rosebush 
whose colour varies from bright yellow to a deep orange.


Abraham Darby and foxgloves


Smilacena Racemosa
an unusual plant whose flowers are softly scented.


Jude the Obscure
my favourite David Austin Rose.
Just in bud with the promise of many flowers soon to flush.


Fragrant Showy Pavement series rose...
the stems are very prickly 
a vigorous drought tolerant rose with a habit of spreading.


Hosta leaves with droplets of water from the sprinkler last evening.


I spy a wee tear from Marigold 
saying goodbyes are often difficult...

until next time

Thank you for stopping by The Humble Bungalow Blog.

Hope that you all have some fun this weekend.
