Storm

After some lovely fine autumn days Thursday was horrible with strong wind and rain blowing in from the north.  Yesterday and today were fine once again but I discovered that our Luculia had shed some branches.  The scent of the flowers was almost overpowering.  I took some cuttings so, hopefully, some good will come from it.

I posted a picture of this bush earlier in the year when it was just coming into flower.  When we arrived here two years ago there was no sign of it under all the weeds.
