Katsura Tree and Crinodendron

This corner of the garden is lovely just now but rather overcrowded. I love the katsura tree and the red lantern bush but they have exceeded our expectations and are now quite large. 

We have a bumble bee nest above our back door just now . It's interesting watching the activity but somewhat inconvenient when we open the door. The advice is that nests are short lived and not reused . So it will be fine !
