Carol's Unusual Garden

 This is one of Carol's clematis, now in full bloom in the garden. It is called "Rebecca", and it is a glorious colour, highlighted here with some rain drops on the petals.

The blue of the delphiniums is a mecca for bees. And people.  Behind it the mock orange is still in frantic and fragrant bloom








Every year Carol grows something unusual -- this year it is Ground Cherries.  Me, I'd never heard of the things... but they are very tasty indeed!  The fruit
is covered in a papery husk. The flavour is a pleasant and unique tomato/pineapple like blend. It is similar to the cape gooseberry, but quite unique.  Rather fun to find something new on your tastebuds!
