I did some weeding and trimming back today. Got attacked by my buddleia. I guess it was fighting back, since I was trying to persuade it its deep and loving relationship with the wisteria was not going to continue through the winter. Wisteria thinks Buddleia is a climbing frame, since it broke its own frame already two years ago and parents have not yet replaced it. Wisteria is not technically part of my section of garden although it is, because parents decided to plant it there despite having a lot of room elsewhere. I love the wisteria, don't get me wrong, but it does not understand personal space rules.
Corydalis is lovely - I've not yet tried to grow it but it's always been on my list of things to try. I imagine it would be a bit like Dicentra and maybe go semi-dormant in the summer if it's dry.

THIS one made it through last winter, and flowered in February (although they aren't meant to flower until May). It flowered through the spring, but I had to fit some kind of irrigation for it in the summer and it almost entirely died back. Now it is growing again though. I do have a bit of a problem in my garden with irrigation though, thanks to the aforementioned huge plants (Buddleia, wisteria) living there. I also have a fairly established rose at the other end, plus the Choisya, which has massively flourished since I planted it there but is also a big plant. I need to cut that back, too. BUT...it's flowering....It shouldn't be. It flowers in April/May usually. But the weather has everything confused.
