Summer at La Pouyette - Charly 2


 In August.....

"God is in the Details"

It seems to me that this well known quote is Charly's "theme"
when walking around La Pouyette, taking photos.

A wonderful surprise - have received yesterday this set of photos
which Charly took just a day before the family left back to Germany.

Again...Images interesting and incredible,
incredible for a 15 year old Girl....

 P.S.

"God is in the details." - Mies van der Rohe 
Concisely expressing the idea that details matter, 
and whatever it is you're doing should be done thoroughly & with an attention to detail.

 Some say “God is in the details,”
meaning opportunities for discovery and creativity come from digging into the details.

A few snap shoots....


...of August colors at La Pouyette


* 

Trumpet flowers at the back of the house





cool - cool....
 
*

Literally over night and with a short spell of rain - first figs.....4 weeks !!! earlier than usual.

 Peaches and Apricots

Grapes are already ripe...
...in August instead of September !


*

 Hydrangeas are fading away....


*

 The winter apples refuse to develop any further because of the drought...

...also this variety, the most juicy apples I can think of...
Unfortunately they all just fall of the trees....

 ...so, good for decoration...

 ...with the 18th century still life as a perfect background

*

On the other hand...
 the Anemone Japonica.....

 ....keeps on flowering while normally off by now.

As well as the....

 slightly darker colored trumpet flower at the front of the house.

Truly a very strange year!

*

And the sun keeps shining...
another glorious sunset....


*

Memories of my childhood and a 'must' in every old fashion country garden:
the Zinnias which are also my favorite summer flowers.

Rather modest...but their color palette is just amazing.

Picked up this bunch....

...while taking photos for a future post of my friend's wonderful Chateau garden







So simple and so pleasing.

Bonne semaine a tous!
