The second day of my two weeks holiday started with domestic stuff like doing my laundry and watering my flowers on the windowsill. And then we drove to our garden. We really wanted to relax, but instead, we started harvesting our potatoes.

But only from half of the field.

But the result looks good and I can't wait to taste them.

Unwashed

Washed and put out to dry.

And we planted a rosemary.

Our leek is in full bloom so we can't eat it this year but we will get some seeds for the next.



Oh, and the bumblebees love our wild oregano (sorry it is so blurry).



That's it for today. I hope you enjoyed the day in my garden.

Oh I know how you feel, I lost my whole entry three times today. Bad mobile data in the garden. Looking forward to reading you tomorrow.

That must have been so annoying for you! I know it takes time to post photos etc. I just wanted to say that I've been getting a bit fed up with the extreme heat but the sight of all your lovely flowers made me feel better about summer again! I've never even seen most of your beautiful flowers let alone know what they are and the colours and shapes really are gorgeous. (Is that a type of fuschia in the hanging pot? Can't spell it...) And those potatoes.... I have a *lot* of respect for people who can produce such fine looking vegetables!

Thanks for this post. Much enjoyed.

It's a hanging begonia. Another version is the yellow one. Then we have the white lily's and the hydrangea, that's the pink one. The big blue ons is a bluebell and we have a big anemone.

At the moment it's not so hot here, we had that great amount of rain and the nights are rather cool.

Thanks for looking and I'm happy you enjoyed the visit tomy garden. :-)
