    Autumn raspberries are growing like triffids trying to hide the foxgloves

    Your photographs are a real treat for the eyes EJ. I'm waiting for some rain for my gooseberries so here's hoping we get some soon.

    Super foto's, EJ. It all looks so good.
    One thing that is further along than here are those Digitalis spikes.
    Your whole garden looks to be in alarmingly good nick.
    Great work.

    Your garden is lovely! I have never seen gooseberries of that size. Seems here in the USA gooseberries and currents are of poor quality. A neighbor from Germany was very disappointed in not getting the quality of fruit he was used to. Guess we will have to visit for a taste test
