Arguta and lillies
My Acitinidia Arguta is growing quickly. this is a very hardu kiwi variety that produces small grape sized kiwis that are reputed to be very sweet and tasty. fingers crossed. It is still growing in an old flower bucket and stands at nearly 4ft now. at the start of the season to say it was a small very thin dead twig is an understatement

Plums are plumming up
Been fairly busy in the garden today, painting pots to get them looking a little tidy. If truth be known they all need painting but only 4 got done today. Couldnt find any green paint in the garage so they are now black
The fish in the half barrel keep making an appearance and appear to be doing very well. This is their third week in there, the algae is building up so I will soon be clearing some of that out
The plums are looking like real plums which is awesome. These two are on the Victoria plum tree. Cant wait to taste them although I did see a wasp taking interest at the same time as I me taking the photos

Water everywhere
The garden pond in all its glory. There is a water lilly on the top as can be seen and underneath the mirky depths are water soldiers and 3 gold fish. There are a few ajuga reptans (bugle) round the edge to, nicely finishing it off. This half barrel has been full for 3 years now
It has been a very rainy day today in Yorkshire, England
This is the kiwi cutting that I took earlier on in the month. It was doing ok, then I noticed slug slime on it and with in days it was dead
