Colourful bunting invited me in to the allotment gardens... and once there, it was easy to follow the colour all around. I liked the juxtaposition of these contrasting colours, textures and shapes - pretty pink roses and a blue shed:
Wonderful pink veins on a cabbage leaf:
More beautiful roses, which seem to be at their best in late June/early July, though wet weather can really spoil them quickly.
These yellow spikes are, I think, Yellow Loosestrife (Lysimachia punctata). I liked the look against the grey weatherboarded shed:
I'm always a fan of sweet peas and this variety seems to flower abundantly:
Our roses are finished for the year. The heat of the last few weeks was hard on them.
