As the sun was shining so brightly, I 'walked the estate' and found so much pleasure in how Spring has started to . . well . . . spring!
I have managed, after all these (30ish) years, to grow a flower . . . .one frittilaria . . . . I know there's two pots but sometimes Cyril the squirrel gets there first!! This for me is a big success!! lolThen I discovered some tiny shoots coming through in the Lily of the Valley pot . . .
So tiny you can hardly see them . . . .The Pieris is shooting away and the Acers are bursting into colour . . . .
The small Wanders are in full bloom as well, they sort of burst into flower very quietly and POW!. there they are . .
Memories of my Mother planting these every spring on my Grandmother's grave . . . . they never seemed to over winter and had to be planted fresh every year. . . . . Looks like Tigger has had a fight, hope it wasn't with the gnomes!!
Wonderful results Christina and joy to behold to be sure.
