                                Spring Time



Violets are Blue and white and pink.
So thankful for my friend Mary who sent me a few violets to plants ...THANK YOU MARY 


I love those first wee harbingers of Spring...



It is time to get out of the Winter mode....roll up the thick mats take the feather covers off the beds...turn off the heatpump and get down and dirty in the soil....

Thanks to Vic and Jamie for the amazing oxalis that flutters it's foliage like butterflies..

To dear ( Late) Jean Young for those first Winter aconites so long ago ,now nurtured and returning every year..


To my darling friend (Late) Karonious ...always think of you when this little clump appears.xxx


My Lovely friend Heather for one of several Winter roses...



It is so nice to visit my friends in the garden......They nod in the wind they survive the deepest snow and chilliest frosts they give so much to me in the way of seeds and colour and they always look their best....Just like the friends that gave them to me they have proven robust and long lasting and are a kind way to remember  friends and of love shared....How happy I am to be a gardener.

I would far rather be in my garden then be any other place in Spring....


Let us be grateful to people who make us happy, they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom. Marcel Proust
