Camellias make an increase show in my garden.
And the Japonicas are pleasing too .

I have bluebells,too but they don’t last long, sadly. They spread every year,though. They are flowering right now and violets ( not sure where they came from, they just appeared from nowhere - birds ? ) I love peonies but they won’t grow for me, they are lovely.

Daffodils.

Has to be my paeonies - all different colours and beautiful perfume. Then violets, narcissi, bluebells in my little wood, penstemon and alstroemeria that flower their hearts out — I could go on and on.

Like most of us Gardners I love them all.
But if I was told I could only have one it would have to be my beauties Agapanthus.

I love a rose called Zephrin Dreuin (sp) my sister died when I was in my teens and she had one by her front door and I planted one in my garden to remember her I’ve recently planted one in my new home. The smell is divine. I also love sweet peas and freesias.

Our wisteria has just started to flower out the back . A sure sign of Spring for us. It makes me feel so happy looking out of our back door. The camellia bush is also in full flower, another pretty one though it drops the flowers everywhere all over our deck.
