That’s the sun bubble cleared out & taken down for another year. I always feel a little sad as it means no more fresh tomatoes.

Dahlias still blooming. They really are a joy.

The wind has finally dropped so it’s safe for Ted & I to venture into the garden to do some tidying up. Lots of lovely leaves on the paths which are now in the mulching nets. Gardeners gold!

Despite being battered by the strong winds, rose Olivia Austin is determined to produce some last blooms.

What an amazing rose Zephirine Drouhin is. Blooms this late which have survived the stormy weather. The scent is wonderful.

Morning all. It’s the tail end of the storm so I’ve been out in the garden to check on damage. Quick temporary fixes to support roses & plants battered by the strong winds. A few runner beans & tomatoes are a surprising bonus. Lots for green chutney. Have a super day everyone 😊

Surprisingly the large bloomed dahlias haven’t suffered from the wind, rain & chilly weather

The garden is rapidly moving into autumn mode but some of the dahlias are still going strong despite the cold wet weather.
