wet

So much rain has fallen and it's been hard work getting the place looking something like normal again.The good thing though is everything is so green...wonderful!

Too late for 2 of the apricot trees that are in the street, they will have to be taken down.However the 4 year old tree is still good and produced 6 fruits this year!
















The new plum and cherry tres also survived the winter and have some fruit on them too...















The aubergines and courgettes have loved all the rain and are sarting to produce.
















And the gift from one of our guests Liz Hill, a passion flower ,is growing really fast now...thanks Liz!
