Our garden looks really scruffy now, the lawn is bare from Bramble’s activities in the winter mud and today I am re-seeding the lawn, the hanging baskets are waiting to be planted, the yucca needs re-potting – this is what it should look like later on in the year.!

I’m not really a one for shooting flowers… dead plants? Check. Weeds? Check. Flowers? Hmmm… much as I love them my photographs of them have always left me cold. Mr PC bbuying me flowers though? Had to be snapped. ;-)
