Jam, Meadow and Cornflower

I potted up the freezer jam today and now it’s in the freezer awaiting scones and cream – and visitors!

We discovered a new family run nursery today and bought a couple of lavender plants to be here in pots now and to be transferred to the pollinator border at the allotment in the autumn. Behind the selling area is a beautiful meadow. Catching wind blown flowers is quite hard so I made a very brief video with blustery blooms and bird song too. I did get one of the cornflowers in a moment of lull..

Rumi, A Sunset and A Summer Meadow

We all need hope in these dark days of Winter. These words from Rumi and the accompanying photo came my way today and I thought I would like to share them with you.

“Even the darkest night will end,
And the sun will rise again.

~ Rumi”

A lovely friend and neighbour has looked after me today, bringing over some ginger and lemon Yogi tea. On the label were more wise words which conjure up for me a picture of a wild flower filled meadow – Poppies, Cornflowers, Daisies. The photo is of the smiling wild meadow in The Lost Gardens of Heligan.

“The clouds must weep before the meadow smiles.”
