Plant photos from French hols
A group of us stayed in an ild farm house 50 mins North of Avignon. These are some of the things I saw;
Pomegranites growing, I had not seen that before.
Flower I didn't recognise.
An olive grove next to the house.
We also saw the grapes being mechanically harvested for wine, a very clever machine!

One photo I missed; there was a chestnut tree being attacked by a moth (I think) and last year it lost it's leaves completely quite early, so the owners have hung several of these containers around containing a pheromone (?) which will stop the cycle of moths and caterpillers.
Hi artjak. It looks beautiful there
In the sticks near Peterborough
The olive grove's looks gorgeous artjak.
That second plant is interesting. Bit like the flowers on ivy.
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
The yellow one looks like Bupleurum fruticosum
In the sticks near Peterborough
Yes Nut it is that! Very good for flower arranging, but a bit big for my garden
RunnyB, I didn't notice that the branches were that short, but they must have been strong. The olive grove was very magical with a misty feel to it.
