My hanging basket at the back door .

My old sink full of Alpines .

A funny one showing the mint popping out through the spout of a broken teapot .

Just going out for a look around to see if there’s anything new in my patch .

It’s really cold and grey here Auntiflo . Dunno where this glorious weekend weather we were promised has got to ?

A lovely display, Lemongrove and Auntyflo's viola's with their little faces. Just beautiful to see.
It does lift the spirits to see colours and growth now. How wonderful nature is. I love it.

Isn't it just glorious in the garden this weekend?
Time to sit and just daydream.
We have a few marigolds in the front. They always self seed and make a splash of colour, and these little violas and violets have arrived from somewhere to please me in the back.

Easter Bunny?

That’s gorgeous lemongrove

We have no sun today and it’s really cold too.

Our Camelia is just coming in to flower too blondenana I’m sure it was earlier last year .

part of the garden looking bright and sunny and colourful?
Lifts the spirits when the weather is lovely.

My camellia is coming out, past the bud stage but not in full bloom yet,and lots of blue tits, and 2 robins that seem to live in my hedge,
I see them popping in and out,having a nibble at the seeds and back in again,
Clematis has small buds on it, but it never seems to grow very high

Well I wasn’t expecting Marigolds to be out yet

J52, thank you for the name of the rose. I only moved into this bungalow in November so I don’t know anything about this garden. I’ve been a keen gardener in the past, but I am so surprised at what is coming up here. It is only a small garden about 20 foot square but it’s packed with lovely stuff. Can’t wait to see what there is. Have a lovely day.

Is that Canary Bird, if so it’s lovely and often the first to bloom.
I had one in my previous garden, I’d forgotten about it.

I’ll have to source one now and find a spot for it. Thanks for the reminder

That is just beautiful, restful too and a marvellous sun-trap to boot.
