On the other hand some things do seem to be holding on much longer, or
getting ahead of themselves. On Saturday I noticed little self-sown
plants of Linaria 'Fairy bouquet' have popped up and are in full flower
and the perennial candytuft, Iberis sempervirens has started blossoming
again. Rudbeckias, Calendula, Leucanthemum and Geranium 'Rozanne' are
still going and there are a few roses open with new buds forming.

Last Thursday I passed the remnants of (what I guess is) a previous
year's wild-flower planting. That had Linaria (maroccana?), Escholtzia
californica, Coreopsis verticillata, Papaver rhoeas, Daucus carota,
Centaurea cyanus, Achillea millefolium and Linum grandiflorum flowering.
