Mists and mellow fruitfulness

It's that season again - early autumn.  The mists, or east coast haar, has gone today, thank goodness and the sun is shining again.  The mellow fruitfulness of the garden is wonderful, and it is producing some lovely things to eat and to sniff!  The climbing purple French beans are the best thing ever.  If I could only grow one thing (apart from runner beans of course) it would be these.  They are just delish.

    Wow! I love the richness of the colours and I can almost taste those homegrown tomatoes. x

Early morning light

There have been some cracking early morning skies this week.  The sunrise has generated a strong rose gold light which has been picked up not only in the clouds but also through the silver-white grasses around the edge of the golf course. I always marvel at the clouds.  Constantly changing, formations that have never been seen before, never to be seen again.

In a vase on Monday - colour

The intense colours in my vase this week come from nasturtiums, sweetpeas and a single glorious zinnia! Their beauty and love of life speak for themselves and need no further words from me! Enjoy!

A simple vase on Monday

I have just one flower in my vase this week. A simple, pretty, wild narrow-leaved Michaelmas daisy. The vase is actually a black pottery cup. I wish I could remember where we bought it and who made it, but it is a great favourite of mine. I even made it the subject of a piece of artwork several years ago. Clearly shaped by hand, it has the air of a Japanese piece about it.
