Garden photos

Things have been happening in the garden again and we are finally eating our own tomatoes and courgettes after a very slow start. It would seem that the problem is nationwide, judging from the price of fruit and veg this year.

Come on, LCA & Nicole, names these butterflies, recently fluttering in the garden.

These moth-like butterflies loved the lavender but disappeared overnight!
Whether it's the wet spring or the variety we haven't had a successful year for courgettes. Hopefully things have changed now!

The tomatoes might not be pretty but they are wonderfully sweet and now plentiful - result!

Le premier c'est un grand flambé, le deuxième une mégère si je me souviens bien. Et bravo pour les agriculteurs (trices), nos productions montagnardes ne sont pas très abondantes cette année ! Seuls les runner beans importés en douce d'Irlande il y a plusieurs années sont toujours aussi productifs !
Bisous et à bientôt, héhé.
