Blackberries and rosehips

Edith drew sketches of blackberries in August and September in her 1905 and 1906 notes respectively. Edith was in the South West of England for a period of time during August 1905. On the 18th August she wrote, 

‘Blackberries beginning to ripen…’

The blackberries in our garden (July 2025) had started to ripen on the plant for at least two weeks. Both blackberries and rosehips are a good source of Vitamin C.  Check for recipes that include these items or the equivalent that help ward off and overcome colds and flus.

My sketch was drawn on some yellow brolly fabric.  The background frame is based on an e-processed purple brolly fabric.
