After the rains

Showers and sunshine!

An awful lot of plants had to be cut back last weekend due to the rain spoiling the flowers. This week with warmer temperatures and a fair bit more sunshine, the plants are beginning to bounce back. A couple of the bedding plants might be beyond help, but we'll see.

Roses and peonies. Definitely worth the wait!

And finally, I spotted this tiny wee fella. I planted three aubretia a couple of years ago here at the top of the dry stone wall that hides my work area. They all died...or at least I thought they had!  I shall wait and see if anything comes of it.
