Avant le déluge

Just time to grab all those things that were drying in the sun, before the heavens opened. The allotment loved it, but at home I had 10+ litres of water cascading through the roof in several places.



Noticed evening primrose plants for sale for 95p today - that must make my lotty worth, ooh, at least £30, just for starters.



The celery is coming along very slowly. It was looking a bit yellow, so I fed it with some comfrey.



A shame that the pompom poppies don't last more than a few days, before the lightest breeze tears them to shreds.
