we need more peonies

I have a few. Not enough. Absolutely my all time favourite. I have a plan to fill this bed with many more, single, double, red, white, pink...











They are in the midst of the Gallicas - Tuscany Superb with its deep dark blooms, clear red Rose of Lancaster and its sport, stripey Rosa Mundi. All set about with a frill of pink and blue geraniums.








The weather is mixed. We’ve had a whole load of rain, cold and strong winds. But also sun and warmth. I walked up to the water treatment unit half way up Chawleigh hill this morning, and it was like trudging through a sauna. They have threatened thunderstorms for later.

Fields are off limits because there are Cows And Young! Some of them have eaten half my hedge, in particular the lime leaves. Grr.

Word of the day...Helseforsikring - health insurance.
Or, if you prefer...Oppholdstillatelse - residence permit
