Maurice Mallard arrived last week......
Euphorbias are attracting lots of insects.....obviously you can see the ladybird but can you see the other bug?
At last, a tulip in bloom. They are very late this year.....but this is hopefully the first of many.
All the silver birch that Poppi and I planted are in leaf. A wonderful addition to the garden.....
And finally.....what garden would be complete without a dandelion or two or maybe more....
The journey with the garden gets better each day....many new additions are waiting in the wings......blue lupins, blue and black iris, allium purple sensation, echinacea white swan and lots lots more. Can't wait to show you.......
Happy Sunday safari.........
There are fairies at the bottom of our garden!
They often have a dance on summer nights;
The butterflies and bees make a lovely little breeze,
And the rabbits stand about and hold the lights.
There are fairies at the bottom of our garden!
You cannot think how beautiful they are;
They all stand up and sing when the Fairy Queen and King
Come gently floating down upon their star.
The King is very proud and handsome;
The Queen - now can you guess who that could be,
(She's a little girl all day, but at night she steals away)?
Well, it's ME!
