A Feast of Flowers!

Rain and early Autumn warmth have helped to give everything in the garden a new lease of life. Flowers are still providing lots of colour.

Clary Sage and Marigolds

Sunflower with Penstemons


The radishes, which suffered in the drought and produced few edible roots, now have a froth of beautiful white blossoms to compensate. These should be followed by tasty seed pods.

Radishes in flower


The Jerusalem Artichokes are in bud and look dramatic silhouetted in front of the pale buildings. Will they too manage to flower before it gets too cold?

Jerusalem Artichokes are still growing taller.
