Quimper Hittys 
And the Quimiper Street garden blooms far afield yet tantalizes those of us here who see the gloriousness up close.
Our garden delights us…each flower a little miracle of delight!
Lovely!
Thank you – the Hittys love spending time in the garden!
Beautiful.
We are so happy you could take a little stroll in the garden with us today!
So lovely
Thank you! It is nice to have you visit!
That apple looks like a green zebra tomato! And as a small child, I used to pull the flowers off crocosmia to suck the nectar from the base – until my mother caught me!
It does look like a so-called “Heritage Tomato”, but I assure you, it is an apple, and if it can hang on another month or so, we’ll pick it and eat it ceremonially! Now you mention that about the crocosmia nectar, our Favourite Photographer recalls doing the same! I shall have to sample, and introduce our young human to the delights of hummingbirding!
Absolutely gorgeous!
The garden surely gives us pleasure in spades!
the garden looks so fresh and well tended. As do the lovely Quimper Hittys.
Our flowers are great this year – they don’t seem to mind our cooler damp summer! Most but not all the veggies are also doing well, though the slugs are also thriving, drat.
