I didn't like yesterday so I didn't blog

it was HOT and dusty and I had to water the garden more then once to keep it cool.
But the fun thing about blogs you can look back to what happened last year, on the same date as yesterday it was HOT.
In the night it must have rained and this morning the air is fresh and everything looks a lot better.

A photo everyday   from my back door looking west.

 I love these fluffy clouds.

 Maybe I should of thinned out the tomatoes.

 I love the colour of these cauliflowers and the name"Chedder cheese"

 And baby clementines are so cute

 And also the promise of Chamagne  can you tell I don't like it when its HOT
And I just saw that this is 400th post.

tomorrow its going to be 39C and its not even Summer.

 My first harvest of Asparagus peas

Drying out some Marjoram
Busy day today sorting out the irrigation before the Summer I use a lot of drip irrigation,uses less water(well it would if I remember to switch it off).This year I would like to put timers on all my taps.

Washing and cleaning but

there is always time to look at the flowers

A big Thankyou to my Husband "The Builder"

 So has the Peach tree and the Plum tree.

Tales from the riverbank

Garden photos, some reasons why I spend less time on the computer.

Mango tree is in bloom

 Pea pods are drying out ready to be collected

 Sweet peas are growing so fast

 The sage is in flower

 Just with all the citrus blossom I would stay out in the garden Heaven.
