Hi,
Today is the 1st May and my Lily of the Valley are in flower, recent years they have been late but this year they are coming into flower, I took this picture yesterday when I picked them, also in the whitefairs vase is some white alpine flowers that are beside the Lily of valley in my garden.
When we came home from Scotland my bluebells were in flower along with my daffodils which I planted very late, in fact the earth in the tub was frozen when we planted them and did not expect them to grow, but here they are in flowers. Vernon is going to want this tub for his runner beans so I will transplant them into the garden, hopefully next year they will flowers at the right time.
I hope you have a lovely week, hopefully this nasty wind will die down and it will warm up so I can plant some tomatoes plants, I am going to try a marrow plant never grown them before, and put my bedding plants in the tubs.
I am preparing posts about Scotland, we really enjoyed our trip and saw a lot of Scotland, Vernon had never been to Scotland, and neither of us had been over to the Orkneys, Hope I can make the posts interesting for you.
Margaret
How delightful to return home to blossoms!

Good to hear you enjoyed your trip Margaret, I love Scotland its so beautiful
ReplyDeleteYour flowers are so pretty, I miss my Lily of the Valley, my mother planted them and for years they have always come up and made my day, then suddenly last year they just simply went away, I feel so sad but I suppose thats life. xx
