May and I bought our house in Stirling in 1976. It was built in 1830 and the original garden was on three rather awkward levels. The person we bought it from had found it hard to sell the property and had hit on a wonderful idea. He bulldozed the old wash-house into the garden and levelled it with slag from nearby coal fired power stations. The idea was to make the house into an office and create a car park out of the garden.

Having disappeared from view during the cold Scottish winters, come June the tall foxgloves put in an appearance in various corners of the garden. May uses these flowers as structural columns. The photos include Purpurea, Snow thimble, Grandiflora and Lanata.CONTENT

In fact May has always managed to get quite a few varieties to grow in abundance over the years.
From early Spring the hellebores begin to flower. Some of the evergreen species such as the Argutifolius seem to keep their shiny leaves in pristine condition throughout the year. Others reappear in Spring, sometimes even in Winter, as if by magic. Among the photos, Tutu, Foetidus Westerflisk, Blackthorn, Niger, Orientalis, Sternii, and Argutifolius.
During spring and summer, the irises are at their best. Others included in the photographs are Siberica, Foetidissima, Yellow, Bronze Beauty, Pallida Variegata, Kent Pride and Salonique.
The garden will alway have quite a few lilies on the top level beds during the start of summer, some in pots some in the ground.
At various times of the year there are poppies everywhere in the garden, but especially in the middle and bottom areas. May has even managed several different types of Mecanopsis although the garden soil is not really suitable for this species. The photographs include Papaver Orientalis, Californian Poppy, Snow Poppy, Mecanopsis Blue, Mecanopsis Napaulensis,and Welsh Poppy.
