The higher than average rainfall coupled with some sunny warmer days has resulted in very strong plant growth in the garden with many species double their normal height. Largely I have left it unchecked, just cutting and tying back plants to get access round the paths. Here some of the many flowers out at the moment starting with the 'herbaceous borders', through the small meadow area (lovely to get Chicory 'arriving' this year), to the taller growth areas, very tall back hedge with its White Bryony cascading down, the pond and vegetable/fruit areas. It has been a bumper year for Blackcurrants etc
