No brain power for much chat today, with a one-week-old newborn, but I did manage to pop out into the garden yesterday morning to gather some flowers for my May moodboard…
The rock rose I planted in the front garden after we moved in is doing very well, it’s covered in a huge spray of flowers
If you’ve been reading the blog for a while, you might remember that there were more than 30 rhododendrons and azaleas when we moved in. We brutally dug most of them out, but I still have four or five dotted around the place. This one is my favourite…
Last month, the plum tree was covered in blossom. This month has been all about the glorious pink buds on the apple trees. Almost all gone now, but I am hoping for a good harvest later in the year…
These colourful yellow poppies appear all over the place, self-seeding with wild abandon. Luckily, I love them…
Finally, this delicate little flower is a saxifrage. I had mounds of it last year, though it’s not looking quite so happy this spring… It probably didn’t like the really wet winter.
This marks a full year since I started taking these photos. Interesting to compare this warm spring with what was in flower this time last year.
