September 2013, and it's still raining!
The garden is ecstatic, except for the veggie patch, which is sodden. The broccoli hasn't turned a hair, but the root vegetables are not so thrilled.
The garden is a mass of Spring blooms, especially the bulbs. I have managed to reduce the yellows by culling many of the yellow daffodils and replacing with some gorgeous white ones. Dotted around are pink and purple anenomes, snow drops and jonquils (especially Paper White and Erlicheer). What is left of the ranunculi after a pesky rabbit savaged them, are in bud.
The 'piece de resistance' is the white Magnolia Soulangiana, a mass of blooms this year because there were few frosts- another advantage of the rain.
