    ..oh that's nothing....I've got one 15 feet 3 inches and counting...

     

    ...sorry,...just joking.... sounds great...don't know about records...would you like to show us a photo?...I 'd like to see that....do you know the variety name?...I always like the old Excelsior hybrids personally...

    .fantastic... I wonder if it's the shade of the willow that's drawing it up..? it looks like the Excelsior strain doesn't it? ...whatever... I also like that little corner with lots of little things going on...nice Aquilegia's too..

    Your foxglove is certainly enjoying life and looks so healthy - brilliant.
