Not surprised with you around Z. Bet your garden looks like the H P Lovecraft tale, The colour out of space.

Has anyone else noticed how much the foliage has shot up this summer?

Filled a wheely bin with all the weeds that have appeared in 2 weeks. Although all the veg for yesterdays dinner was from the garden

All the stuff I planed earlier this year has died, struggled after the frost then hit by the heat wave no matter how much you watered they gave up

geraniums, keep flowering right up til the first hard frost and quite good at tolerating drought.

This year has been fantastic for my potted Clematis as well, never had so many flowers and they just keep coming (like me).

Got so bad at one point he had to be rushed into intensive care.

For a while it was touch and go.
