The wet weather has continued. Which means that the garden is looking better than in most previous years when we have 'suffered' a really hot spell or drought by now.
| I love the way the brilliant red crocosmia sticks through the blanket of plants on the main slope |
| The sheep seem to be happy with the weather too! |
| Sheep to left of greenhouse. This is the 'office' annexe |
| The runner beans/green beans/peas have done very well. Most dinners are 'home-grown' right now. |
| We bought these copper flowers at the Hampton Court Flower Show |
| The pots on the patio are a riot of colour |
| The pond is quite magical right now |
| ...as is the bog garden |
| The roses on the belvedere have never been better. Might have something to do with the deer not getting at them this year for the first time! |
