Everytime I think about the garden at the moment, this Sting song comes to mind. It’s actually not one of my favourites but it’s so appropriate. It hasn’t rained properly here in weeks. There have been several days where it felt as though it would rain, and one or two with scary clouds, but rarely is a drop shed.
I went out with the hosepipe to give everything a good water this morning, in the hope of saving my container plants. Most of the things with their roots in the ground are still perfectly happy, thankfully, but blackfly are becoming a problem, which may be an indicator of water stress.
