People ask how we get Rose's so early and with no wind rain damage. We grow some varieties mostly David Austin and Harkness in a rose house. A couple of pictures from yesterday dodging the rain.

Up in the woodland edge the wild strawberries are doing very well. Plenty of small, intense balls of flavour to have with clotted cream. The other picture is the first delphium of the season.

Weekend planting trays of young plants from the polytunnels. Loads to do and hot days aswell.

A view of middle field towards the orchard in the distance. Two large picnic benches with trays of plants to go into the flowerbeds. In the foreground is a 1950s power barrow used to move compost around the fields. Cloudless blue skies frame the top field, a hint of buttercup and other wild flowers just starting to come thru.

After the heavy rain of the last 24 hours, the sun is back. A walk upto the top field in a more wilder part of the farm. #cornwall #flowerfarm
The evening sun, just touches the top of the trees growing in a steeply sloped field. A patch of yellow gorse flower contrasts the unsettled grey clouds passing over, with a hint of blue sky in the distance.

Pruning the hydrangeas, a bit late. But the spring sunshine makes it worth it. If you look carefully a single Robin sits patiently for me to finish and get any bugs I've unearthed.

A view of the middle fields hydrangea patch being pruned. A gate in the distance has a Robin sat on it. The sunny, cloudless blue sky gives some warmth on this early spring day.

Don't fancy tidying up the polytunnels in the rain, so found some pictures from earlier in the summer. One is a bouquet for a birthday and the other is a female stick insect we found living amongst the leaves, rare in the UK

Doing the rounds of the fields to see what needs doing to prepare for the next season. Short, dull day but still a bit of colour out the in way of a sweet gum, that gone red from the yellow and of course Tigger up in field came to say hi in the hope of food.
