Gorgeous cherry blossom in my local park

Very appropriate for Red Squirrel Appreciation Day!

That hasn't aged well..!

Good to see flowers starting to appear in my garden despite what feels like constant greyness and damp

Love Autumn in the garden, there's a quiet beauty about plants like Hostas and Peonies going dormant and others like Chrysanthemums, Rudbeckia and Asters are at their peak

Yes it's been a real abundance of fruit and berries. So beautiful. The birds will be well fed this Winter

Mating pair of White Butterflies in my garden today

Some plants doing well in my garden although it's far too hot for me out there. Regale Lilies, Calendula, Eryngium Magical Anita and Zinnia

Two Hedgehogs in my garden this morning!

In my garden this week

Have a look around at other leaders and see who you'd rather have

I live near a city. No native Bluebells anywhere near me I'm afraid for about 33km. Surely the damage has already been done unless you expect every hybrid Bluebell to be eradicated

It's going to take a while to sort out everything that's wrong

A few photos from a visit to Alnwick Garden last week

#SevenOnSunday

A sad day

I've had them in my garden for over 25 years and they've not spread.

Yellow Parrot Tulip

Pink Parrot Tulip

Rasta Parrot Tulip

Parrot Tulips are doing their flamboyant thing in my garden at the moment. Rasta Parrot and the pink and yellow are from a Pastel Parrots selection #Tulips

I put mine in one of those plastic boxes outside with a lid slightly off so that they get good outdoor light but are protected

The illustration clearly shows E maritimum but the photos look more like E Giganteum

Tulip Annika - a beauty at every stage #Tulip

Narcissus Ferris Wheel

Love these Tulips. Candela, Orange Emperor and Purissima

Narcissus from my garden. A really good year for them and I've had some lovely new varieties including Golden Echo and Mother Duck #Narcissus

Crazy! Bad enough to see this on estate roadside verges but anywhere near food is madness

My local park has a small Arboretum. It was lovely to have a walk in there on a lovely Spring day

Ah I'd have to move!

Hellebores in a vase

In the garden today

Love that window. The flower detail is superb
