Just a few random scenes around the lottie: Clematis ‘Mrs. Cholmondeley’ An overview of a portion of the veg garden: When we sit on tye bench in front of the garden house for a moment of shady reflection, this is what see: The Weigelia is blooming its heart out: …a closer look: Soloman’s Seal: The runners are chowing colour: With all this cold wind we had to apply the clippies to keep the climbers in place: Finally, a small harvest at the end of a wettish workday. The yields are still small, but there was enough mange tout to freeze-in and we ate more shortcake and little breakfast portions. We are eying the Swiss chard for their first harvest. Perhaps in a few days. Welp, in anticipation of coming harvests we defrosted the freezer. Let the harvesting begin.
love the pictures! I have a Weigelia in town and I've always wanted to get a cutting to see if I could get it to root so I can have such a beautiful bush like that. But I won't. All those are so pretty though. I love the variety!
Great harvest and nice tour of the garden area. When’s dinner? I’ll bring the drinks. How bout aperitif -Orange, Rosemary and Rubarb.
Annie— Ta, I can hardly wait. Shaw— thanks, I am glad you liked those. That old bush really is a good one that consistently gives a good showing very spring and again later. I will prune it back very hard after the blooming. Pac— cheers. I like your ideas for din-din.
