September in the park

Begonias and crab apples! We had not expected the begonias to bloom again. These are the same ones we rescued a couple of years ago from the old flower beds on 1798 Street. We kept them in storage over the Winter before planting them out the following Spring. They bloomed, as expected, that first Summer but then came back again a year later bringing their vivid reds and yellows to the park once more. They are probably the best value-for-money bulbs the Corpo ever bought! As for the crab apple trees, received under the Council's Trees for the Community scheme, they are settling in really well and getting sturdier all the time. The birds can expect a good crop of fruit from them in the Autumn.
