Blown Away

Fallen leaves
Oh the capriciousness of the British weather!  I was feeling happy that proper rain had fallen after weeks without any – and then it goes and spoils it all by whipping up 60mph winds that have left shredded tulip tree leaves all over the garden.  Fortunately I went around tying dahlias, sweet peas etc to their supports yesterday, so with any luck the damage will be mainly cosmetic – nothing a broom won’t sort out.

    You’re right, the shrub is a daphnephyllum – I remembered after you had left. Thanks for getting back to me.
