My friend gave me three Morning Glory plants a while ago, which have been very slow to produce flowers but over the last couple of days a few beautiful blooms have appeared which I think were worth waiting for.   There's several buds too, hopefully they won't get spoilt by the 3 degrees we're forecast overnight later in the week.
We had 1cm of rain overnight, all within the space of a few minutes by the sounds of it hitting the windows last night.   Today has been fine, sunshine at times, very windy and there are now some dark skies heading our way, we'll wait and see.
