The head fell off one of our Dahlias so we have it indoors in one of my Mum’s green glass pieces.

We did pretty well planting for bees this year, ten of these plus Aliums  and Crinodendron which  the bees  just  love.

I read the following poem this morning and it touched me. It was written by the Palestinian poet Fady Joudah after the signing of the 1951 Refugee Convention.
