It has stopped raining. My life! Was I sick of the rain. As a keen gardener, I kept telling myself that it was 'good for the garden' and that 'we really need it to rain' but actually all those grey skies were making me sad. :(
At last the rain clouds have disappeared and to prove it, here is a blue sky. The sort of sky one would expect to see in May.
The garden is in a sorry state. The pots are drowned and the grass is water logged.
There is good news though. I am fond of Periwinkles but with the chicken-vandals, I have not had any success. But look what I found:
And this little native viola has self-seeded too.
The grapevine has sprung into life.
I know exactly how you feel, all the rain and the damp just makes me feel sort of damp inside and I need to be dried out. Come on summer hurry up!
ReplyDeleteLovely looking garden, you must be so proud!
Thank you - I only show the nice bits of the garden! I'm keeping the bald lawn and weeds out of shot x
