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!
