The last warm day of the year

Early October has been lovely and warm. Yesterday was a beautifully sunny 18C as I rode my bike to Princes Risborough. The garden has still had lots of colour with a fresh bloom of roses and the bedding plants still going strong around the patio.

The Acanthus is better than it has been all summer. It originally flowered with just one stem, but after I cut this back in August, half a dozen new stems appeared. Gorgeous.

However, the weather has cooled down today and the forecast is for cloudy and cooler days. Well it is autumn.
