My poor garden!
Last weekend, I finally tackled the flower bed at the end of the garden, so, for shame, I'm posting pictures of the state it was in! Or does it look like a healthy herb garden/wildflower garden?
These poor plants were being strangled by the weeds! They were crying out for some TLC.
I only got half of it done, postponing the rest but because of awful weather here, that second bit is still not done. It's been cold, wet and wintry here all week, so bad we even lit a fire last night! In June!
I uncovered this little gem when I cleared the weeds:
It barely looks like one, but it is a rose!
Does anyone know what the next plant is called? I think I will plant lots of it in the hope that it will keep out the weeds. It seems to just grow and grow, effortlessly.
And finally, one morning in May, as I was driving to work, I had to stop to admire this family of ducks! I love that part of my drive to work; it's such a lovely way to start the day, affirming a connection with nature.
