Still farming . . .

There are still a few little ants busily farming the surviving aphids - not a lot of flowers left in the garden at all - just a few out of season wiegela flowers still blooming as are some of the cornflowers.  The Camellia is in bud now as well so I am hoping it will survive the winter ahead.
Had a lovely coffee with Black Tulip and JJ this morning - they are in North Devon for the week - sad for them but the weather has not been kind, though the sun is now out as evening approaches. Wonderful couple of hours catching up over coffee/hot chocolate and tea cakes!
