Helen Johnstone
I live in Malvern, Worcestershire and am a very keen gardener. I started the Patient Gardener Blog in January 2008 as a way of recording what was happening in my garden and connecting with other like-minded people. I started a second blog PatientGardener 365 January 2013 in order to try and post a photo a day to capture what is growing in my garden or places I have visited

That is stunning, Helen – it is as if the edges and inside of the petals have been dipped into red icing sugar. Is this one of your specials?

Hi – I find these flowers rather spectacular buy rather top heavy. Weird that Northern and Southern Hemisphere they are out for Christmas – certainly forced either way!
