Met office thinks we will have our final day for now in Bristol of plus 30 degrees. No way can I go out in that. Oh how I wish I had a stream Joyce Your garden is right in fashion - wilding i believe it is called! You have more important things on your mind right now. i do hope things improve. Meanwhile I am looking forward to Thursday and getting out of the house.!
There's so much colour in your garden, Marion! Beautiful.
Yesterday I was cutting the grass after returning from holiday, and the perfume from 'Mrs Sinkins' (old-fashioned pink) mingled with 2 old roses, 'Fair Maiden's Blush' and 'Rosa Mundi' was almost overpowering in the heat and humidity. We could do with some rain though; the strawberries need daily watering at the moment.
Since 2019 I've lived in east Clare, in the west of Ireland.

Too hot for me Marion.

I am going to hunt for my battery operated fan as tomorrow I will there for a few hours.
Garden is getting a bit neglected I'm afraid.

Cloudy today but dry and still 20 degrees
Lots of watering , yesterday filled water butts up from stream
Have a good day

Marion, you will be longing to get back out to the garden. I wonder what surprises await you in terms of new flowers.
I brought hubby home yesterday evening so will have time today for a proper look at the garden.
There was a light shower earlier but I'm not complaining!
Two beauties that flowered in the heat of the day. The first one is Lychnis "Molten Lava"
but the second has no label.
I have managed to get outside today as it is a tad cooler so practised being artistic with my camera.
