Wild Tulip

"If Winter comes, can Spring be far behind?"
(Percy Bysshe Shelley: "Ode to the West Wind")

This can be a busy time of year for many of us but between late autumn storms nature can be especially peaceful, birds falling quiet early and waking late, sap sinking back to the roots of the trees and all those wind-blown seeds finally falling to earth.

A Season Ago

... already.



Organic lavender growing this summer, long days, busy with butterflies and bees.


The lavender plants grew so well this year there was plenty to dry and use for eye pillows - here are the aromatic flowers with some new organic cottons. When these pillows are sold I think I'll buy more plants for next summer - bee haven, holistic.
