Summertime gardens at Ednovean Farm

Well what a summer we have had this year with each day conjuring up images of the Mediterranean to our everyday lives. Our Garden has flourished here at Ednovean Farm this year, enjoying the dry heat and basking in the sunshine.
Why not visit my July Garden Diary to see the snaps.

Golden Oat grass and growing Echiums
A succession of grasses give autumn interest

I must say that even  now on the cusp of autumn the garden is still sending up new growth towards the sun. If you have missed my regular updates do pop along to Google+ to visit my Garden collection where I add my snaps a couple of times a week.

Sunny formal sundial garden above the sea
What a difference a season makes! (see below!)
Will we ever have such a wonderful summer agian or will be forever destined to intone "In my young day the summers were so hot!" Time will tell but I'd prefer us not to see the Beast from the East again this winter What a long journey we have made into our perfect Mediterranean Summer in the Garden
