Sun and rain / Le soleil et la pluie

We had several days of heavy rain and then went away for a couple of days, so we've come home to find that the weeds have grown ...

Après quelques jours de pluie forte nous sommes partis pour deux jours, donc nous sommes revenus à trouver que les mauvaises herbes ont poussé ...

but so have the apricots / mais aussi les abricots:

and the mangetout peas are flowering, as pretty as sweet peas / et les petit pois mangetous fleurissent, aussi jolies que les pois de senteur:

Those pea blossoms certainly are as pretty as sweet peas. The complex, subtle colors of them never cease to amaze me.

Your apricots look quite big, ours are a bit smaller!

I'm always sorry to see the flowers of climbing peas fade - they are so attractive in their own right. I'm still waiting for mine to show above ground!
