What is one to say about June, the time of perfect young summer, the fulfillment of the promise of the earlier months, and with as yet no sign to remind one that its fresh young beauty will ever fade." - from ‘On Gardening’ by Gertrude Jekyll (1843-1932). #flowers #gardening.

What more could you possibly want from a plant? You pick the flowers, it produces more and more and each time you pick one flower, 5 more pop up after you blinked 😂🥰😍 Currently have 7 vases around the house with these beauties in! 😍😍😍

Scrolling through X - I don’t know what’s wrong with my algorithm but all I see is ‘body language experts’ analysing the royal family, or the police driving at a cow? So I’m sharing this #peakdistrict barn in the golden evening light for anyone who needs balm for their eyes.

Just found out that rabbits can swim. Also learned their ears go into swim mode when they do. This is important news.

I also found a feather in my garden. Great horned owl, I'm guessing. I saw an owl in my neighbor's yard last night.

When you will encounter this pieces of art in your trips at the Mediterranean shore, stop for a second and ponder at the artisan who spent years of its life grafting and caring for this monument to beauty ! Multi grafted bougainvillea in all its splendor!
