Allium

Out of all (8?) the alliums I planted 2 years ago, only 3 are flowering this year, and the blooms are definitely smaller than the first year. Maybe I need to plant anew each autumn.

Finally got to the end of the week. It’s been a long one - I mean, we’ve had to work a whole five days this week which apparently we all felt was one day too many! Plus we’ve been without our library management system for 2 days as a new firewall the IT installed has messed up the connection with the server so it’s been fun making sure everyone has enough work to do. In our team, we all use it almost all the time so it’s been a challenging couple of days. I hope they get things sorted over the weekend.
