Forest of flowers

Pop

Small poppies

           Heatwave on the summer solstice, poppies tall and small.

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.

OK class, pay attention. The Polish for blue is the same as the word for heavenly. Neat.

Popping Up

Poppies popping up everywhere.

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.
