We seem to have gone from hot high summer to what...late summer, early autumn...at laser speed this year. I have to confess to being unusually pleased to see the nights drawing in this past week. I know, I'll be moaning about the lack of daylight all too soon but I really can't function normally in heatwaves. The grass is greening, and my rather weedy dahlias are finally forming flower buds. One of the roses I dug up and brought here (Olivia Rose Austin?) is still going strong, the Tempest series geums have never stopped flowering and the new sedums are settling in well. The grapes...well, we may well be eating them soon. If anyone fancies a bunch (or three), let me know!

Yellow lawns, some failures but still plenty to enjoy. And one very special addition to the garden.

It's 8.30pm on Sunday and we're heading for another little heatwave.
You can see in the first photo that the sun sits above the houses across the road late afternoon until sunset and on very hot days, you get blinded by the sun and roasted. Consequently, we haven't been able to sit out here much recently as it's too damn hot. Ironically, this garden is north east facing so you might expect it to be shady but as I've said before, it's more complicated than that.
In other news, you can see Blake the dog guarding the hosepipe (it hasn't been worth putting it away lately frankly). I'm very aware that we need to regard water as a precious resource but if we don't water the three young trees I've planted in recent months we will lose them. And some of the soil here is, well, dodgy. Anyone who works a garden in a newish house will know what I mean..
Some things that I've planted in the last twelve months are doing very well and there are two grasses looking rather marvellous. But where is the third?! I always plant in odd numbers and a pair is just wrong! 😬
