    Well thank god! I had that growing in a previous garden and could I remember the name? COuld I find it on google? No, obviously not. People power, that;s what that is..
    @Dusty, I got to poke and prod and squeeze quite a few oreganos yesterday, and rosemaries, which have apparently now been rechristened as Salvias according to plant genus type gubbins...She is not amused. Really really not amused. Happened in 2017 though so the news travels slowly - "Rosmarinus officinalis became Salvia rosmarinus"

    Are the lighter ones a bush variety? They look a bit yellow, maybe an epsom salt feed?

    Thanks for the mound suggestions - shovel, garden fork and rake are all on my list.

    Dusty, I had to google riddling - it’s pretty much what I thought it was though. I’m not sure that’s what the mound is the result of - nearly every square inch of the garden has stones and/or rocks - it’s a nightmare and I regularly curse the previous owners...

    Farway, do all tomato flowers look the same?? I have at least 5 on Tom 🍅 and they look the same as your pic.

    Twopenny, I love that rose - I remember you mentioned it a while ago and I promptly forgot about it - definitely one to look out for at the garden centre now that I’ve made a note...

    The weather here has been scorchio all week 🥵 and same again forecast for next week...
