Beautiful garden I have a thing about old coping stones

We have what I think is hyssop hyssop? It appeared in a rose's pot about 5 years ago. It's pink small and trailing. Slight smell. And what I thought was cosmos that won't flower my partner says is dill, appeared. That smells nice.

We have a sort of vine appear to if I can get it on here I will try. The leaves are about 3 inches long heart shaped but more like a tongue. I wonder if some of them come from the supposed seeding free bird seeds. As we get corn growing too.

My ,we had some rain last night down here in South West, garden pond went from about a foot below it's normal level to full to brim. Refilling aided by the water diverted from the downpipe on a conservatory using a device meant for water butts but adapted with a 7m length of plastic corrugated tube that routes the water into the pond.

A quote from April 16th.'25. Pond level up at this level again today for the first time since April. Shows what a prolonged spell of dry weather we have enjoyed.

We will cut until the end of October or early November then have a final clean up mid November. The good news is that we have an irrigation system, the bad news is that we have an irrigation system !

My artificial grass never needs attention Except to sweep a few leaves off. Never any weeds growing through either. Why are some people so snobbish about " that`s not grass " as one of my neighbours said!
