Lark Ascending

The first bud opened up...

...and proceeded to get drenched.


The scent is faint, but these are so handsome all is forgiven.



More to come...


Already worse for wear with so much rain

I forget what these little guys I sowed are

Apples

Honeysuckle recovering well

Borago explosion soon!

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!

Two days ago

This may be a Papaver pizzicato, but I won't know until it opens.

Bumblebee busy on chives

Waiting for Margaret merrill to open

Anyone any idea what's going on here? Three buds on the Lark ascending were
cut-off in this manner with the black sap coming out.
I Googled but haven't found anything like this...
