It’s past mid October and we have Clematis in flower, most surprisingly a Nelly Moser looking wonderful.

Clematis Huldine should be in flower now and is quite prolific!
The third one is just beginning to flower and is in the new wall border. It’s Clematis Florida Sieboldii.
My next project is sewing scrub caps. I’m trying to do the same process on each cap in turn to save time. Here they a have all been pinned and two have been tacked. I’m hoping to get them sewn tomorrow. The weather’s been so good that I’m gardening much of the day too, today planting the Sugar Snap Peas and potting up the Kalettes (Flower Sprouts) that I have brought on from seed and prepping the box for them with shovel loads of compost.
The lambs spend much of their day being really sedate, just munching away at the grass near to their mothers and then suddenly, they all gather and race around the field, jumping and scrambling and leaving their mothers munching and murdling at their youngsters. It seems the lambs have reached their teenage ‘years.’ I have not managed to video them yet as their moments of madness are sudden and brief. Here is a peaceful video for you, full of birdsong.
Another Clematis has come into flower, Huldine, very pretty with its touch of green in the white and its purple centre.
There are still some pretty flowers in the garden.

There was a closing down sale in one of Truro’s kitchen shops today and I bought a couple of cookie cutters in the shape of owls, irresistible actually!
I wish I could wear high heels as these would be perfect for gigs with the Ingleheart Singers whose colours are black and red.
A new Clematis, Huldine, is flowering and it is very pretty with its delicate purple lines on the back of the petals.
