Re: Late Summer pics
Excellent Mick. I'm still trying to create more leaf shape and colour so would appreciate answers to these questions...
picture 5 under the pergola to the right of the potted Trachycarpus, what is the almost round leafed plant?
picture 7 - long leave just to the right of centre foreground
picture 8 - love the curved boardwalk, to the left hand side of it, foreground, light coloured?

Re: Late Summer pics
That really is a great garden, and love the design of it - well thought out, pristine. The walkways look really good - even my o/h commented how good it looked. It's not often he comments.

Re: Late Summer pics
Thanks for the nice comments. The walkway does seem to work well, I pinched the idea from another member's photos (Tony I think) - it's just old scaffold planks really.
David - you're clearly a man after my own heart! The round leafed plant in photo 5 is giant burtterburr (petasites) which I got from Urban Jungle. It is kept in an old plastic pond as they are supposed to be very invasive.
The long leaved plant on photo 7 is indeed an echium - bonus points for Greyhound . The light coloured plant on photo 8 is Begonia evansiana. I have two, the other one is not doing nearly so well tho I can't think why this is. I'm not really bothered about the flowers, one has white ones and the other pink. I can't remember which is which and neither have shown this year so far.
You know it'll never be done Kata!
