Ragley Hall Gardens

Sunshine September 11, 2008

Well it was a wee bit wet this morning but the sun has come out and it has been a smashing afternoon, I hope we get a good day tomorrow.The tomatoes and the chillies are desperate for some sunshine.

Some of the grass at the Hall hasn’t been cut for over three weeks now and the weeds are almost imposible to keep up with because of the wet weather.

Some things are enjoying the rain though, all the trees and shrubs are thriving and the herbaceous perennials are doing well to , but most of the bedding is sulking now.

Crops are okay from the Kitchen garden as you can see but salads have been a wash out for most of the season. I have put some late courgettes in the tunnel, but they will need some sunshine and I will sow some salads in there too next week for late winter cropping.

I didn’t want to start complaining about the poor weather but that jet stream has alot to answer for.
