Salvia involucrata ‘Hadspen’ – Off The Edge Gardening

Six on Saturday – Monster

Come August I have recovered from my “it’s nearly Christmas and we are all doomed” angst and into my “let us live in the moment, time is but an illusion” phase. The garden is pretty much looking after itself, just some dead heading and propping and thinking. I have begun collecting seed and planning forContinue reading “Six on Saturday – Monster”

Six on Saturday – Disappointment

Since I was last SoSing I’ve been on my travels, back to my former stomping ground in North Devon. It was wonderful, it did not disappoint.

You might imagine that whilst away I was undertaking exciting and adventurous exploits, about which you would be only half right. Half of the time, not halfContinue reading “Six on Saturday – I’m Back”
