Sumptuous Summer

Valley Garden Paradise is bursting with life, rose bushes laden with buds are an explosion of colour and scent.  Intoxicating and magical, it is a privilege to be custodian of this touch of paradise.  Bees dance from petal to petal collecting the flowers' elixir, spoilt for choice and heady with joy as the nectar goes to their heads!  Drunken bees often rest a while on the warm flags or hitch a ride on my shoulder…

Time to give thanks that summer is here…
