A bunch of grapes, still green. Will they be red or white when ripe?But the rains are good for everything else: the grass, the trees, the vegetable garden. Not to mention the water table. It's mid-July and we've already had seventy-seven millimeters of rain since the first. That's more than the monthly average for here. This July is the wettest July at our house in five years (I started keeping track in 2005).
My guess is the grapes will turn red!
ReplyDeleteI bet these are Chenin Blanc white grapes prevalent in the Loire!!
ReplyDeleteGood rainfall and a heatwave make for good gardening, I suppose. It was regularly well over 30 degrees when we were in LGP most days last week, hitting 38 on the hottest day.
ReplyDeleteThey look ready for picking .
ReplyDeletescottsabode, noted. I'll keep an eye on them.
ReplyDeletedale, ah, competition! We shall see!
jean, thankfully it's cooled down a bit after a series of storms with more expected today.
starman, not for another few months!
You could send some more our way. We've had some in the last few days, but grass all over London is still looking terribly brown.
