Spring carpet.

The countryside is looking so beautiful now with its many shades of green set off by splashes of gold as rapeseed blooms take hold.  Distant vistas beckon and dazzle but, look down, there is treasure to be found as pretty wild flowers carpet the ground.

take care ~

Love-in-the-mist and roses.

Our only garden is a narrow strip of earth between one side of the house and the pavement.

Today, 10th June, it is looking very colourful. The roses and irises were already here, the love-in-the-mist is from a much-loved garden of friends in Essex and the yellow wild flowers look pretty, set off the other colours and are loved by the bees so we’ll let them be for the time being. I cannot recall  their name, but they are small dandelion-type of flowers so we will have to catch them for removal as soon as they “puff” - you can have too much of a good thing!
