A Mediterranean courtyard... in Hertfordshire. Several decades ago my father planted a Grapevine now scrambling all over the back porch. And he planted a small Fig which has grown to become a voluminous tree. Both are looking like they will produce edible fruit in this long hot summer.

 The Grape has intermingled with a Chocolate Vine (native to Japan, China and Korea) and Virginia Creeper (North America). Species like Trailing Bellflower (from the Dynaric Alps) have spread through the cracks in the paving. Out of shot to the right a very large Holly Tree looms overhead. So it's more of a global fusion courtyard really.
