Another atmospheric view to greet me in the morning, our field shrouded in fog and frost #winter #frost #fog

And completely different, last rose surviving ice and rain, on old leggy plant that I'm tempted to lose but it always has some late flowers that I can see from the kitchen window #roseinwinter #rose

My favourite tree, a wonderful oak that's at least 250 yrs old with classic spreading umbrella-shaped canopy looking great in the autumn sun

Now the mouth numbing fun begins, harvest of the Szechuan pepper Zanthoxylum sp, the pretty pink fruits that set your lips and tongue tingling combined with spicy heat. The shrub is easy to grow but it's thorns are wicked making harvest painful! Will use these to create some smoky #Szechuan flavoured salt and a new batch of Chinese 5-spice powder #szechuanpepper, #edibleharvest #ediblegarden #perennial #growyourownspices #growyourown
