Not Yet Autumn in Our Garden

After a couple of hot months, this cooler weather has fooled some of us into thinking that it's Autumn, but Summer is not quite over yet, not in our garden anyway. I love this rose:


And these two-tone gladioli are amazing:


The tomatoes in Mr A's greenhouse will be ripening for another month or so yet:


We're already getting a steady supply of them, plus a few raspberries which you can see tucked into the front of the bowl:


And there's enough root vegetables to keep us well fed:


You can't beat 'growing your own'. If I had to choose my favourite crop it would be peas. I love them so much that they rarely make the journey from the garden into the kitchen intact! What's your favourite crop?
