Barlotti beans
Butternut squash

Fruit bushes (red current, gooseberry, strawberries, raspberries)

squash, definitely, I thought it was cold here but no frost, thank goodness  :)

Cabbages, garlic, fruit bushes, leeks should be absolutely fine.

Heavens! We won't have frost here for a few weeks yet!

We were within one degree a couple of weeks ago.

Where has  the summer gone ? theres quite a chill in the air already, hoping for some days of dry weather  to  finish digging where Ive cropped, too wet under foot at the mo might have to sacrifice some growing space and make my beds smaller to enable me to put in more paths  next year  :-\

I think what I really notice is how quickly it gets dark at night now, I know that the longest day is in June but it is so light for so long that when it is always a bit of a shock. :-\

It's getting earlier & earlier when OH locks up the chickens ;) ;D.

Got quite cold one night last week.  One of the crab apple trees in the hedge row looks as if it has been burnt.  Oddly enough some dahlias nearly still fine.  The slugs have arrived to hover things up.  And all that lovely soil conditioner is drifting down from the trees.

But still no rain yet.

One advantage of the poor summer appears to be that the flowers are lasting longer than usual- the municipal plantings still look lovely, and I still have sweet peas, marigolds, cornflowers and sunflowers brightening up my garden.
