A feeding visit to keep everything growing well. A good deadheading session is already necessary again.

The finished nigella needs to be taken out of the woodland bed, but it’s still looking good overall. The larkspur is doing well and a beautiful little helianthus –  no doubt from the bird seed, even though its chipped seed – has appeared. I’m looking forward to seeing what seeds down for next year.

I was accompanied in the plot by a very young robin, who was surprisingly brave. After feeding, the harvest included blackberries, tomatoes and beans … although apparently I didn’t take a photo?
