We hope you and your gardens are coping in this heat, in the last 3 weeks temperatures here have ranged from as low as 2 degrees C one night to over 30 degrees in the daytime – such extreme temperatures put our plants and ourselves under a lot of strain. With current weather conditions in mind we have changed the topic of our July talk from Pip Smith to ‘The drought resistant garden’ – it seems somehow appropriate!
