Autumn Zebra

When Mum goes on holiday, we go and water the plants, and I scavenge stuff out of her garden. She is not away long this time, so I just got things that were suffering from lack of water (rhubarb) or going to seed (salad greens), strawberries because they don't last long, and potatoes and lemon balm because there is tonnes. I love to see what there is to eat growing in other people's gardens. Salad greens, lemon balm, strawberries, potatoes and rhubarb scavenged from Mum's garden

While we were away on holiday for a week, the rose bud on one of my seed-grown roses opened. I don't know where the seed for this one came from or even what the rose hip was like because I didn't label the first few. The plant itself is not very healthy, maybe it has some kind of disease, or has got too much strong sun. The rose has probably been open a few days at this stage, and the plant hadn't got water for a week as I don't think it had rained and it is only in a pot. The plant is only around a year old and still tiny with only one stem and a few leaves. Pink 5-petal rose, grown from seed
