As June ends and the roses approach

a little garden update.  

The peas are flowering now and what I thought was broccoli was a cheeky weed in disguise! Rocket thriving also and so delicious and peppery in salads

The sage patch is scattered wih these beautiful purple sage flowers and the smell of the abundance of lemon balm is so calming.our son didn’t believe me when I told him our roses would be yellow. I can’t wait for them to burst, victory over the aphids I’ve been removing wiith my thumb and forefinger as needed!Aloe in their own personal jam jar ‘greenhouses’. In other news, my five year old orchid bloomed for my birthday on the summer solstice. Pics of the lady blooms coming soon. Life’s a garden, dig it!
