There is hope in the promise of new life and colour in springtime. Looking out of the window even on a grey, rainy day, I revel in the sight of green shoots and leaves, and of bulbs peering from pots, getting ready to bloom.
Today, yellow is aplenty here…
The pink of this cercis is bold and glorious…
Wandering around the paths, splashes of blue appear…
We’re halfway through cutting back old growth. A few plants were lost to frost over winter, including a hosta, hebe and geraniums. A phormium is looking in poor shape too.
Roses are pruned and taking on new leaves.
I’ve moved tulips as close to the back door as possible, so we can enjoy them each morning as they unfurl.
Wishing you a lovely weekend.
