just a few pics,been really pleased how garden has looked this year,going over a bit now, but still looks lovely.
this begonia is 4 years old,this and a yellow one is all thats left of a pack of 32 i bought 4 years ago as plug plants. keep them dry through the winter and start them off in the spring.
yes lucy,they do look nice lol. actually the smaller ones do taste a bit better. a bit.
stiffkey salt marshes the sea is about a mile over them,when the tides out you can walk out on the sands for miles. best you dont get caught on them when the tide comes in though.
i have got a lady from disability rights coming to see me next friday, apparently i should be claiming other benefits and i havent. hope everyone is having a lovely summer whatever the weather take care all

Great pictures Mort, you garden looks so very pretty. Yes, the flowers are going over now and ours got battered by a four hour storm on Wednesday night and another storm yesterday. Glad you have done a post.

Beautiful flowers Mort. Just shoot those tomatoes over here Mort and I will take good care of them. lol I do believe that whoever is on your case is picking up on things and I hope she gets you all your benefits you have comming. Lucy
You have every right to be proud of you green thumb Mort. Everything looks so lovely. I really miss that (living in an apartment). Enjoy what is left of your summer.
Hugs, Joyce

Beautiful!!!! All those pretty colors.....I dont get to see much of that out here in the desert!!!
Have a great weekend.....Liz
Such beautiful flowers Mort! The tomatoes, WOW so many on the bush! Looks like a giant version of Shirl's Cherry tomatoes. WE had tomato sandwiches for supper, with cherry tomatoes & peppers on the side. LOL.
My first experience of a great tide was in Portsmouth. I had only experienced a two to three foot tide. I was amazed at the thirteen foot tide. When we went on liberty the boat was even with the pier, on our return the boat was WAY DOWN!. I have saw video's where folks race the tide over there. Looks like fun for the hardy folk.
Great entry, hope you and Mum are feeling better!

hello! yes they are very lovely still! I am still struggling with my tomato plant. It has not made tomatos, yet! my april says it needed some bees to polinate it and since i only have the one plant that is effecting the pollination. so she took a cotton swab and we visited a friends tomato plant and she brought some pollen from there to try to pollinate my plant. lol jsut call me dr, frankenstein, lol
I have seen a comercial for that type of tomato plant that you have. i did not believe it would be as easy as they said it was to have a convenient supply of home grown tomatoes. very few things in ads work like they promise.
hope you and mum are doing well, hugs, jun
The plants are beautiful!

Hello Mort, thanks for visiting my journal and leaving your comment, sorry it had to be the sad entry, but there are others which aren't, so hope you will visit again. I too love my garden and I am very impressed with your flowers, they are lovely. I am VERY envious of your crop of tomatoes, you will have to let me know which variety they are and what your secret is. I only have 4 plants this year - grew about 12 last year and the tomatoes were delicious, but not as abundant as yours.
Will visit again soon :-D
take care Freda

Hello I'm Joan you visited my journal earlier. Your garden is fabulous it is so much more colourful than mine it has been devastated with the weather. Stiffkey now that's a one of the place names I know well we have holidayed in Brancaster Staithe ever year for the last number of years we do a lot of bird watching and Norfolk is the place to be. We had our usual fortnight in May when the weather was fabulous clear blue skies every day for 10 days out of the two weeks. great. Love Joan.
