In an exceptional year of abundance, when it seems that any seed that falls from your pocket grows and flourishes, I can't help thinking, this is too easy, and where's the catch? It's not just my garden that's doing well, all around in nature life is thriving, lush and vibrant. Nature always balances out is this the redressement for the bad times we have had, or a sign of the natural world making it's seed bank, strengthening it's larder and preparing for hard times to come.
