They were very happy to see a new face. Cautiously I began walking inside the underground passage, which runs about one kilometer (0.6 miles) to the Egyptian side.

The workers continued their work and I managed to document them while they were repairing their damaged tunnel and resting. I could hear some murmurings and sounds coming from a neighboring tunnel that was separated from us only by a wall of sand. I almost got lost and started to enter another tunnel run by other people, but the workers notified me. It was not an easy hour.

Monarda bradburyana is a new monarda that lacks mildew, so I will definitely try this (available from marchantshardyplants.co.uk) although its pale lilac colour may be too insipid for some. The giant Inula is fun, Piet’s choice of Inula magnifica 'Sonnenstrahl’ looks superb growing some 2.5m (8ft) high, but its downside is, for some, the colour.
