June is bursting out all over! It is a joyous month when everything goes pop with colour. But sadly we have now passed the summer solstice and the days will start to get shorter. It is all so fleeting so here are some moments to enjoy:
Tumbling and climbing roses along the stone river; cascades of rosemary with pops of erigerons and an arum lilly by the steps; and sisyrinchiums, geraniums, poppies, foxgloves and more erigerons lining the old wooden steps:
Down in the secret garden, despite the storms, the rosa has been as fragrant and as crimson as ever and the dog rose is scrambling well; the agapanthuses are getting ready to burst open:
All shades of pink are everywhere:
And down on the beach, no one is about, it is all quiet and the moment of zen is complete.
