    Haven't looked on here for a bit - gorgeous snake heads Hazel and Hefty image

    Your garden will be beautiful as always W'song - looking forward to seeing more as the year goes on  image

    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....

    Just shows the difference in our country re climate Dove - my Snow Buntings are about 2 inches out of the ground but still a long way from flowering. I put quite a good number of them in here two years ago - love them  image

    Beautiful signs of spring Wintersong, would you believe I have forget me nots in bud!?

    Hefty and Hazel those are stunning, think I may have to branch out and try a few new plants this year image it will be my gardens second year!

    Love the iris Dove! Think I will have to get some for next year.

    Better put my camelea picture here as its the proper place

  • I think that camellia is absolutely gorgeous Wonky  - that gorgeous central boss of golden stamens against the delicate creamy silk petals - like a wonderful embroidery.

    Love it - and a complete bargain image

    Lovely colour, Wonky. Reminds me of my Malvern Hills rose.

    My iris reticulata was just coming out when we left and when we got home 12 days later it was all over, apart from spiky leaves.

    Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.

    Lovely Camelia Wonky,  I should have some Iris Reticulata in the front garden but haven't seen them yet.

    Beautiful photos, every one of them.  I've only got a couple of wee clumps of snowdrops and the hellebores are just budding.  I'll have pics on in the next few weeks - when we've caught upimage

    A bit of a break in the rain and Denzel and Not Denzel sat obligingly on the fence while I watched through the kitchen window  image
