2nd Dec and still picking Rasperries...
This is def. the latest I've been able to pick Autumn fruiting rasperries in the last 18 years. My previous latest was mid/latish Nov. New flowers still being produced too. While I've got used to hardly any frosts until Dec/Jan over the last few years, this year seems to have been exceptionally mild. Fresh raspberries from the garden, 7 months out of 12! |

Still picking raspberries here in Dublin.
The primroses (primula vulgaris) have started to flower. The lawn has also put on a new spurt of growth, after I cleaned up the mower and put it into storage for the winter ! |

She wasn't sure about doing it properly. She is at the top at the angle with the road so her plot's well lit there - I wouldn't like it though. Anyway, all her strawberries's runners were all blossoming - little pink flowers variety, just lovely but so so wrong! Her compost's doing fine though ) |
