Sorry we have been a little quiet but I must admit, this has been such a challenging year to grow natural, British, pesticide free flowers in. We are spending lots of extra hours each day watering just to keep things alive which is getting really tedious now, just me and my new best friend the hosepipe standing in a field or nearly passing out in the tropical heat of the polytunnel 🤣 ....but with every negative, there's always a positive ....at least I have worn shorts, have a tan, blonder hair and it seems to have been a brilliant year for butterflies and bees, there are tons of them all over the flowers which makes being out there for ages so much more bearable ...here are a few of my spots. Have you seen lots more butterflies than usual too? I hope so, they sure need a boost!
