Some of my photos taken last autumn on the Goth Weekend. It was a fabulous day.

Wildflower Patch

I sowed the seed at the end of May and now they are nearly all in flower. They have certainly brightened up the patch where previously we had this huge horizontal fir tree that died in our severe winter. This tree was there when we came to Salisbury and so it was over 20 years old. The soil left behind was naturally very low in nutrients and so perfect for a wild-flower patch. And so it has proved so far.
What will happen next year is anyone's guess. Some are perennials.
