Since the middle of June when it was shaping up to be a very hot dry summer, it has actually done little but rain! There are a lot of hedges in the garden because I do like the structure they provide. However, wet weather doesn’t help when I need to get them trimmed. It has been a long slow job this year. At last they are done – for now anyway – and I am turning my attention to the other jobs in the garden. Always need to be weeding but I also need to trim the box topiary. My bunnies in particular have got rather fat! They are quite troublesome because getting the ears into a satisfactory shape has been a challenge. One in particular has a nasty habit of resembling Marge Simpson. This week they all had a nice grooming session and are looking a lot better I think!
