Some pictures

We've had rain. Like, exclusively.

And one evening, the weirdest light I've ever seen. Greenish blue just before sunset.

Yesterday evening, my first ranunculus bud!

Calla lily

These which I don't know what they are...

This is one of the heaps of ground we now have in the garden,
which has been quickly colonised by weeds, nasturtiums and borage,
and they've grown 20 cm in a few days with all the water!

Grapevine

Waiting for love-in-a-mist

Some callas in pots

Some peas are making do, but most are munched down

Lark ascending coming soon!

Roses



I am not trying to build a cutting garden, but I could not resist these. They are my first cut flowers. It is raining so, so much! no garden time for me.

The yellow roses are from a rose... plant, I cannot call it a bush, that was already in the garden when we arrived. It is overgrown by ivy which we are now cutting back because we are working on the terrace. Last year it gave one single rose, but this year, with a bit more space, it's coming with several. I may have to move it when the time is right.
