Marking our Summer Solstice …

 And just like that, we have arrived at our summer solstice.  Longer brighter days are here with late sunsets & lazy evenings as the sun is reluctant to set until almost 10pm soon.

My garden is bursting with colour & even though I try to keep to pinks, purples & blues, the reds & hot colours appear too like punctuation marks in the garden. 

It is a space we love being in. Our largest tree provides much welcome shade on hot days & cools the air at night so the breeze in the house provides welcome relief. 

This green space is calming & I feel a little smug that I am doing my but for the wildlife who make themselves at home  Green spaces cool urban heat islands so it is great for the environment too.

I made an iced lemon verbena tea today with herbs from the garden & sat in my green space, grateful for blessings. 

Thank you for stopping by & visiting. Celebrate the solstices - be it summer or winter where you are.
