Damage inspection

Well the gazebo is still in place as are most of the plants. Some poppies no longer have petals and half of the big artichokes has collapsed. These tend to over grow the garden so I took a lot of this one away earlier. How half of what was left has gone it looks a bit sorry for itself. All the other plants are OK, even the tall ones that I always fail to stake.
I have been meaning to blip this aquilegia for some time, although its right outside the living room window I kept on forgetting it. Most of the flowers were passed their best before the winds and rain; now only a few are left. Although this one is missing a bit it is still rather beautiful, the colouring so fine.
I also practiced what "that lady" suggests again, as can be seen in the supplementary picture. I still have a way to go with these,maybe I should re-read her notes.
