Sunny

Yesterday afternoon was a sudden burst of Spring for us. The sun was shining and it was warm enough to potter about the garden without a jacket. Today it's cold again and also overcast.

Here are a few photos from yesterday of the garden coming to life in the warm sun




This is the first time this camelia has had flower buds since it was planted about eight years ago. I can't even remember what colour they're going to be. Exciting!



It was such a lovely afternoon, I hope it's not too long before we get more warm sunny weather.

    It was a lovely day, definitely more than a hint of sprig in the air. Great photos, love the ladybird :-)

    such glossiness in your garden. Like a country living double spread! I think mine is still buried under piles of dead leaves. Must get out there and do something about it.
