Lilium Golden Splendour.This fully hardy Lily is a must for the North east garden.
The large yellow trumpet flowers with deep burgundy/red stripes on the outside of the petals are extremely fragrant. Golden splendour performs very well without deterioration year after year unlike many of the Liliums.
This one in our garden is positioned under an arch where I look forward to its return every Summer.
Other Lilies in our new garden
Plant bulbs in Autumn in a sunny position where they have shade at the base, although Spring planting would be fine if necessary. Always best to plant Lilies deep, at least twice there own depth. Golden splendour also performs very well if planted in deep containers using John innes no. 2 compost. Over winter the pots in the cold greenhouse, placing them outdoors in early April.
Go on plant this hardy Lily and fill your garden in July/August with a glorious perfume.

I love the Little Golden Books I don't know how many hours I spent reading them to my kids! I wouldn't normally suggest you destroy a perfectly good book, but when several pages have writing on them, or are ripped, you can always salvage some of it and re-imagine it into something else! I found several Little Golden books at Goodwill for 99 cents or less. I made sure none of the covers were damaged and they had at least a few usable pages. I wanted to make decorative birdhouses with them.

The Sultry Splendours of Singapore En route to Australia we spent two nights in Singapore. It is an extraordinary place and left and impression of fabulous botany and an amazing mix of ancient and contemporary architecture. It’s a long time since I have been somewhere that humid, so there was no racing from spot to spot, but in between retreating to air-conditioned interiors, we did visit both the Botanic Garden and the Gardens by the Bay and loved them both.
