Sad times down the garden path

 This year has not been so good on the vegetables front but we did manage to grow red hot chilli peppers!

 A few sunflowers survived the drought.

Overall, the garden is still quite dry.

 These were once lawn areas. You may notice that the summer house has turned green...

 Unfortunately, so has our pond...with blanket weed.

There are lots of these tall yellow flowers

But little else in the wild bed. It is quite disappointing but I will try again next spring.

















The sweetcorn has survived










and so have the potatoes, a few tomatoes and the apples are growing again, here are a few windfalls..

It is with great sadness that I have to report about the sudden illness and loss of Omlette. I'm not sure what affected her so badly, perhaps she was egg bound, perhaps it was something else.

It is not the same without her, she will be missed. I am trying to remember her during better times.
