Show off!
They're taller than me!
I assume that is YOUR garden?

Yes it is - we will post a time line showing how it was when we moved in versus now - once we can find the early photos. It provided the basis for what we have now but was a bit bland.
We had a much larger garden at the previous house but the scale was such that Linda did not feel inclined to tackle it [not much you can do with a fully grown Horse Chestnut tree3] - now she wants a larger one (garden that is you mucky lot).

Mine isn't even knee-high yet!
What the heck have you been feeding your garden - I want some!

I realise I should have changed the aperture to make Linda more sharp but I was focussing on the flowers using Linda merely to provide some idea of scale I think the tallest is even taller than the sunflower we grew previously.

I do like your neighbour's cordyline!

If he looks after them as well as he did his banana plant we will not have to suffer it (or rather I should say them as he has at least three) over long ;D He will plant stuff right up to the border - does he not realise that trees and even Cordylines, get bigger with age? Still it is his fence that will get wrecked and I can cut back any bits that hang over our side
