Demise of the Sunflowers, Bloomin' Floris.....

 We fully intended to go out somewhere on Tuesday for a treat day, but the night before had been so windy that it had snapped the head off the biggest sunflower 😭 



 When we got up next morning a second sunflower had bitten the dust too so we spent the morning in the garden, clearing up the debris.  We tidied pots and trimmed plants, giving everything that needed it a good haircut.  It all looks much fresher now and should, hopefully, give us more colour for a few more weeks into Autumn.  Even the hanging basket has new buds on the Geraniums 👍

Lunch was a quick sandwich and tea (or dinner depending on what you call your evening meal) was cheese and leek omelettes with a big salad, utilising home grown tomatoes and yellow peppers 😜 It was absolutely delicious 😋

Adventures will have to wait....

Thanks for popping in.  Stay safe wherever you happen to be,

  1. I think the beauty of retirement and having a bit more time on our hands, means that mostly plans can change on a whim. Far better to get your garden all nice and tidy and still have a treat day to look forward too.

    1. That's so true. We both felt much better after a tidy up of the garden, otherwise it would have irritated us until it was done :)
