Poppy

Oh no, little poppy, don’t you be opening on a day with 50 mile an hour winds! You’ve waited a long time to open, don’t blow it all away now!

Thankfully, somehow, it survived in spite of opening. Thank goodness, the bud has been developing for weeks and weeks. And the rest of the garden seems ok, although those poor little climbing French beans took quite a battering!

I don’t understand wind. How can it blow so hard for 24 hours? Surely there’s a limit to how much wind there is!
