Hi dearest Hive Gardeners!
Here is my update #gardenjournal - thank you so much to 
This is SUCH an intense time of the year: working each moment of the day, at a leisurely pace, of course, interspersed with naps and aperitivos, always - to keep all kinds of life alive in the sweltering heat of summer.
I also have a load of seeds in pots, which I'm very excited to share about, when they come up. The wilder parts of the garden are partly impenetrable, but I pop down even there with a large pair of shears, occasionally :-D And I launch water from the hose, off of the last wall, to reach at least a couple of the more vulnerable small trees there....
MUCH more to share - watch this space for a kitten post, soon - they just started moving about more dynamically :-D
BLESSINGS TO ALL, and on all our creative endeavours,
Clare.
