"The kiss of sun for pardon,
The song of the birds for mirth,
One is nearer God’s heart in a garden
Than anywhere else on earth."

Dorothy Frances Gurney

I am no gardener but love pottering about and seeing things grow - its magical!

Pull up a chair and have a cup of tea!

This is the front of the house with old fashioned english cottage plants,

campanula hanging basket and clematis on the back fence;

devon violets and the bay tree;

nasturtiums and passiflora;

On the decking there are poppies, an ice cream tree, wisteria and  tomatoes! There are also sweet peas, jasmine, clematis and honeysuckle....some of my bird house collection.

This is the magic wishing tree for my granddaughter! Petunia, lemon thyme, lobelia.

Here is my little helper LOL
