Cream

I am not sure if this is from one of those seeds I planted last year that I thought nothing had come of or if it is a hybrid from the plants already in the garden.

It has a very large flower, larger than all the rest. 

I think it is beautiful.



and a little later

2019 and new seeds

planted for new colours (I hope) at least that is what the packet promises.

So far little green shoots are visible after the very nice weather we have had.

The already in the garden plants are well up and some are even in flower.

Not sure if the seeds will produce flowers this year but I can hope.

Time to start thinking

about setting seed for this year, although why it takes the snow to make me think of it I am not sure.

It could be the arrival of the plant catalogue...with all those tempting plants that could come into my garden ..and die.

Poor things, I shall spare them this year and see what I can grow from seed. 

Maybe in a week or two I will make a start.

The bee's knees

and other bits of anatomy. Oh and blurred bits they move faster than my phone camera and I can react.










Yes it is the same picture cropped a bit but I like doing that.



Wings, I sort of caught this bee in flight.



 Yes take a look at it a bit bigger.



See wings, bit blurry but there they are speedy little bee wings.

Even speedier.....even blurryer..



So they like the foxgloves too
