A Place of Happiness

“The love of gardening is a seed once sown that never dies.” Gertrude Jekyll

Spring in my garden is over and has it displayed some beautiful flowers. Later rain than usual has fed their feet and brought many happen moments enjoying the scene.

The bees have been busy and I love that they fly in and fertilise my tomatoes, cucumbers, beans.

The blue sage flowers have been humming with activity. 

Sometimes my garden is very unruly. The birds feed and bring seeds of all sorts. Some useful some not. I believe if a plant seeds, it can grow.  I have a different view on weeds.

There is no colour matching to my garden.  Whatever lives is allowed. Consequently it’s sometimes a source of mystery as to what might come up this year. 

It’s also full of memories. Gifts of iris’s, snowdrops, roses, lachenalia, hostas, cinerarias, lilies, all make for a year of memories. 

Somehow when the lawns are mowed everything looks neat and tidy. 

I recommend a garden to work in, sit in and watch nature grow and flourish.
