This isn't a particularly good shot inasmuch as it lacks sharpness, but I took it because I liked the way the daffs seem to be peering into the water & the resulting reflections.....problem was, they were located on the far bank of a very large lake.
I lived within a few miles of Wembley for the first 18 years of my life, OL, and never went there. I don't intend to start now. I believe all they have is grass. Think of all the food you could grow in that space!
btw, my other half (AHHHH so that's what OH stands for...) is also v keen on orchids and her FB name reflects that.
I thought it was about time I took a few more pics so have just been out in the garden before I shoot off to Warwick for a concert this evening. Taken in a bit of a hurry but I hope you enjoy them.
A couple of weeks ago I bought 4 new small-ish fruit trees. A Quince that I have planted in front of the pergola; a Conference Pear, a Peach and an Apricot against the fence (left to right). The Pear has just come into blossom so have added that on its own. Then the Cherry which is just beginning to come into blossom and below that is an Erysimum - (if they all upload OK of course)

PS, the fence faces due south so they will get plenty of sun (if we get a summer!)

Your fruit trees look lovely and healthy John - smashing garden too.
Lovely John - as always
Where you been, what you been up to?
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
