Fatalities

Despite regular and frequent applications of water, seasol and powerfeed and lots of mulch, some plants have, just this week, turned up their toes.

It's like they withstood so much, and this last heatwave - a record - was too much.

We've lost chamomile, chives, strawberries, a blueberry, both the male and female kiwifruit vines and two different varieties of thyme. 

Poor little plants.

On the other hand, the moonflowers threaten to take over the front garden, the mulberry is looking lush and shady and the zucchinis are wonderful.  Next year we will have passionfruit.
