Autumnal

A foxy selfie

Uh oh

Final few

Overview

Good pong

Later than usual, but the sweet peas are finally blooming, providing nasal delight, in contrast to the stench of a nearby comfrey brew.

Running away

Allotment birdsong, May - October.

Go Wild In The Jungle

     Everything brimming over, frantic to flower and produce seeds.

Peak lush

It's all gone a bit peak lush, what with all the recent rain and approaching maximum daylight. Poppies are starting to explode and allium's are threatening to. The wind battered foxgloves have held on to their flowers and are busy producing seed for next year - as is everything, weeds and all.

Ambient Allotment

The nicest man on the allotment

 

 The nicest man on the allotment died last week. His once tidy plot is living on, unharvested brussels sprouts are flowering, the cardigan and cap wearing scarecrow works out his notice before retirement.

Rework the plot

             Rhubarb springs back to life and promises an early crop.

                 Leeks planted last summer are still a bit thin.
