There's a small private garden, Phil's Garden, on the seafront at Stonehaven. It's full of herbaceous plants and is a riot of colour at the moment. These poppies caught my eye on Saturday, but there were so many lovely flowers; vibrant orange montbretia, big-head yellow knapweed, beautifully blue alpine sea holly, orange strawflowers (which I haven't seen in a garden since I was a kid) and blue cornflowers, to name but a few! Phil clearly knows what he is doing!
I love the colour of these poppies. Sea holly is one one of my favourite flowers. I had a wildflower patch last year, and got a lot of pleasure from it. Mostly fiddle necks and poppies.
Oh wow they are extraordinarily beautiful. Just a simple flower but two tone….Phil has a great sense of what looks stunning in a garden…. my sort of garden. Might look for seeds if this pretty poppy! Hope you have more photos!
