The lavender is closer to flowering within a few weeks the gardens will begin to show purple. It is starting slowly everyday a bit more a little like magic. The gardens are starting to show colour starting to burst with pride.

 Today I have been harvesting roses beautiful, silky rose petals and today's harvest is to go into jelly sweet, decadent rose jelly.

The chamomile is also ready to harvest the sweet, relaxing chamomile. It never fails to amaze me how much the gardens have to offer.

The lilacs nearing their finish I have a cauldron full of sweet lilac water waiting to be made into lilac jelly.

Off to harvest on this wonderful day
