This work was painted at Gerald Gardiner’s home in Gloucestershire in the mid 1930s and is a good example of his depiction of a night-time scene, showing the light, the reflections and shadows cast by the oil lamp and fire as his wife, Evelyn contentedly reads a book.

Now that outside temperatures do not support outdoor gardening, let’s move indoors to the Nepenthes aka.tropical pitcher plant.

“Listen, I’ve got a secret to tell you” said Jack.
“I’m all ears”, said the Rat Terrier.
“I know where the biscuits are kept. Let’s go!”

I had the pleasure of seeing La Bella Luna twice;

🌱 After the Sweet Autumn Clematis petals fall, these colorful whorls remain to provide a second encore. The vine is a prolific bloomer so it’s covered with these stars.

Time to FALL back. More sunlight at the end of the day means dark mornings. 😞
It’s a difficult adjustment.

🌱🌿 Light pink summer blooms produce an abundance of bright pink showy plump berries in the fall on this Coral Berry or Pink Snowberry. It’s a small shrub that can be grown in light shade and checks all the boxes! #bloomscrolling #berries #coralberry #shrub

🌱 Quick Look! What does this resemble?
It’s Gooseneck Loostrife, appropriately named.
NOT A NATIVE; research before adding this to a garden. #bloomscrolling #gardening #invasiveplant
