I've been having such an enjoyable potter in the garden last week and over the weekend. The roses aren't out yet but the buds are there and on Sunday the sky was glorious. I'm excited for the summer ahead. 'The garden was peaceful, breathing scents of roses and stocks. The sky was glorious as if a flight of angels had just passed over, sweeping wings of gold from end to end.' Dorothy Whipple Someone at a distance
I love big blowsy old fashioned roses that smell wonderful. My garden is looking less like the Triffids have taken over since the weekend but it's only a matter of time before they're back...
My garden is lush, the cow parsley at the end is blowing gently in the breeze, and I am super excited to see that the new bed of hostas I planted last year are not yet eaten by slugs. Small pleasures.

ReplyDeleteTonia - I know with this rain & occasional sun the garden is sprouting. I can't wait for the roses to flower.
