'Nicholas' in all his glory - bar a few little holes from tiny snails. Takes ages to bloom. Summer's last hoorah. #Mygarden #Gardening #Dahlias 🌱

Tempting to have a second set of pots! But they are big and expensive!

Autumnal light illuminating verbena nodding over the waterbowl. October is a tussle between waiting to de-pot the, still blooming, dahlias, and wanting to get on with filling the pots with spring bulbs. Leads to mad bulb planting in November! #Gardenshour #Gardening #Mygarden 🌱

New arrival in #Mygarden, a stunning Green-brindled Crescent moth. Feeds on ivy flowers, so please leave ivy for the wildlife! #Teammoth #Gardening 🌱

Late afternoon in September. The big dahlia 'Nicholas' is a very late bloomer and needs lots of feeding too. #SixonSaturday #Mygarden 🌱

Ground elder seems to have suffered in the drought. A silver lining? 😀

Almost tame heron at Kew. Bold urban wildlife. Stood close by for ages, admiring the sculpture?

A tree, dead from heat and drought in 2022, at Kew Gardens. Painted red as a symbol of climate change.

Henry Moore sculptures at Kew Gardens. Something mediative about the curvaceous shapes in a green landscape.

Creeping thyme is doing a good job of softening the edge of my sunny path. #Gardenshour

Heptacodium is very popular with bees, and this ant. A beautiful little tree. #Gardenshour #Mygarden

My nerine (just the one). I've been pruning shrubs which suffered in the drought. Hopefully more air and space will aid their recovery. #Gardenshour #mygarden

Glaciologist @matthias-huss.bsky.social shows that the centre of the Great Aletsch glacier in Switzerland (the biggest in the Alps) lost 6 meters(!) of thickness just this summer. "No words...", he adds on LinkedIn.

The bubbling waterbowl by night. Makes a lovely calming sound. It has a light in it and there are solar lights too. #Gardenshour #Mygarden

My pebble puddle pool. It's shallow. The birds use it to drink and bathe and it's full of life. #Gardenshour #Mygarden

It's tough. I have Seasonal Affective Disorder. It's not kicked in yet. Looking ahead to spring and planning my tulip planting.

Love your colour combinations. I think you may have just inspired my tulip selection for next spring.

Today Charlie Cat was due his annual vaccinations at the vets. After a week in the armchair he's outdoors somewhere and missed his appointment! He can read the calendar! Clever boy!
