    It's a lovely vase-full Busy. 

    Might see if I can pick a few bits and bobs later.

    It is lovely.   Wouldn't have thought to combine Amistad and a light blue but it's a really good combination.

    Thanks. I only put them together because I didn't want to throw them away.

    I think that's lovely BL - and I don't like blue! 

    They're the same tone of blue though, so  you have the contrast in shape which makes it work. The Dahlia adds a contrast to both. Really pretty image

    I was out picking a few bits and pieces earlier. I've nicked one of daughter's 'drinking jars' (I know - I don't get that either image )  to give me some more room

    Black Knight sweet peas, some cream/white ones, Osmanthus, Wild Rocket,  Verb bon, Actea and some of the odd white Cobaeas - flowers and buds.

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



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

    Those are both so different and both are lovely. Like the contrast of light and dark in Fairy's and the pretty colours of Joyce's.

    This is definitely the last one for the year.
