The apples we will enjoy in autumn are starting to look like apples, rather than little swollen buds….

The herb garden is running riot: oregano, marjorum, sage, borage, mint, parsley, chives…

The hydrangeas are doing their purple-pom-pom thing to the fullest…

& the poppies continue to pop, then flop…
