I do love those we blue irises Joyce. Not venturing out to take pics today but here are this morning's views from front and back doors. Very unusual for the Vendée this close to the coast
Popped out just long enough to top up the bird food.
Vendée - 20kms from Atlantic coast.

Most of that pic is actually paddock Joyce. In theory the horsey neighbour is using it for his horses and paying us in horse poo. In reality, he has wimped out so, after a wee chat, I shall invite farmer Luc to put cows and calves in there again so we can concentrate on this bit and the front.

Some beautiful photos on here,I wish my snowdrops would hurry up and flower,all my bulbs were put in late due to moving house(beginning of Oct) maybe nothing will happen this spring????
The whole truth is an instrument that can only be played by an expert.

Lovely camellias. Much of my garden is in a frost pocket so unable to grow them.
Some pots of iris starting to flower.

Obelixx- the bottom pic shows just how much ground you have to play with.
It will be good to see it later in the year after you have been ' in and at it'.

The ground may be frozen hard here, but lots of bulbs are pushing up through the leaf litter in the Wilderness
The camera on my mobile can't cope very well with the low sunlight, but it's rather atmospheric ...
That's Hellebore 'Mrs Betty Ranicar' behind the snowdrops ... she's one of my favourites

Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
