Saturday...( spot the difference )

An early drive this morning so only a quick glance around the garden...

I took the first photo this morning and the second yesterday evening...

...spot the exciting difference!!

Have a great weekend ♡

Bank Holiday Monday...

Today is very wet...

watering cans are playing weird, discordant tunes...

new poppy petals are being pummelled to the ground...

snails have launched a new attack...

but I still love it out there...

Garden Additions...

My garden is my haven...

Usually I'm out there from about 6am in my pyjamas; digging or pruning...or just looking. 

It always amazes me, and is the inspiration behind most of the flower arrangements on the 5ftinf Table.

So, I thought I'd use my blog to share my garden as well as my table...

This Echium is currently about 12ft high and completely swarming with bees...

The Dog Rose is incredibly pretty, but really has to be tamed in a small garden...

Paeonys are so theatrical... I moved this one about 3 years ago, which they really don't like, and today I found it hiding behind an overpowering Japanese Anenome. I cleared a little space to liberate this year's performance...

Quaking Grass has wonderful texture and delicate movement, but it has gone completely crazy recently...it will no doubt be making it's way to The 5ftinf Table on a regular basis over the Summer!
