I was at work today & as I have gone back to using the metro I wasn’t home until quite late but I caught the last of some sunshine & reflected how much insect life my globe artichokes support at this time of year as they open out into their electric purple flowers.

I picked a few more blackberries & blueberries too and a look at the apples with a view to picking more. The apple tree are the back continues to look very unwell and is flowering again for all its got severe leaf curl.
