Thriving

Anything thriving under the olive tree is a cause for celebration never mind in the sort of heat that is leaving most other things gasping. These little yellow aquilegia are repeat flowering and the euphorbias are positively thriving.

I am not thriving in this heat which is due to last well into next week. Some adjustments to our plans for the final week of the year as a result and the hope that our busyness means it will go quickly.
