    Hi Folks, Popped out with the camera today and took the following

    image

    Sorry about the bird poo.  All these are self seeders from 1 primrose planted about 10ft away, every year they increase.

     Camelia doing its usual thing.

    image

     Anemone Blanda, a fairly recent edition to the garden.

    image

     Have always loved the combination of heather and daffs.

    image

     These are the hyacinths purchased using the wyvale voucher in the mag.  They are growing through the grape hyacinths in the front garden and smell divine when you walk past on the path.

     A few more daffs.

     A Hellebore purchased from Ashwoods, no idea of the name but this year it has been plastered in flowers.

     One showing that ivy needn't be a thug.  This has been in the garden since we moved in nearly 6 years  ago and I've only had to pull up a few tendrils heach year to keep it in check.

    Lovely pictures everyone.

    Beautiful Magnolia, my Magnolia 'Betty' is still in bud and will be for weeks yet. I don't know the names of the daffodils as they were from a friends garden.

    That's lovely Lucy, like the idea of the pot hangers on the fence, we've got a similar fence in our back garden that could benefit from some of those. Those big planters are amazing. image

    Last year for me was all major construction jobs renovating the garden after a six year break, this year the flowers return. image I will be glad when I can post up some pictures of a garden with flowers rather than a building site, still a lot to do this spring and summer though. image

    Thanks I made all the planters myself image The pots on the fence is a hope, as the fence is completely rotten, so i am hoping that it will manage the weight of these small pots... I look forward to seeing your garden too image
