The garden today

I have some wonderful lilies this year - the scent is amazing!! Unfortunately I can't reproduce it here! I brought some in from the garden and they are scenting the entire flat! And the yellow lilies are absolutely HUGE!!



There are also pink lilies, with an even stronger scent.




I have also been fortunate with the salad veg, especially the radishes. They are so crisp and delicious!!




I can hardly bear to tear myself away to go to Italy tomorrow, were it not for the fact that I have a garden there to look after as well. We have a beautiful rosemary hedge, that my mother-in-law planted 30 years ago.



I have started growing lavender there, and when we arrive we are greeted by the beautiful scent and sight of these wonderful herbs.
