My Garden :: June

Hello Lovelies, 
here is my mosaic of flowers currently looking pretty in our garden......

top to bottom left to right they are 
1. Allium 2.Geranium 3. Ox eye Daisy
4. Lilly 5. Oriental Poppy 6. Aquilegia
7. Geum 8. Perennial Cornflower 9. Chive 

And here is how my border is looking at the moment.......

The Euphorbia continues to look stunning and the geraniums are in flower adding shades of pink to the still dominant green. Welsh Poppies add a splash of yellow. In the distance you can see the veg patch is filling up .There are potatoes in pots and Sunflowers are growing up the side of the shed.
 Here are APRIL and MAY for comparison.

I'm writing this post today to try and distract myself from worrying about my Mum, who has had a big operation this week. I'm hoping and praying that she makes a speedy recovery.

    Hope your mum recovers swiftly... Yes connecting with nature and blogging seem good distracts to me... My poor garden has taken a bit of a battering with the rain and wind over the past few days! Cx

    Now that is what I call a garden and a lovely bench to sit down on with a cuppa tea and just listen to the bees humming and birds twittering away and admire all those different colours...pure heaven!!!

    Hope your mother will be on the mend soon

    Been reading your blog for a while as a fellow crocheter, runner and Mum but not commented. Hope all goes well for your Mum, my Dad is also having an op as I type this so I am thinking of you. Scary just how parallel two strangers lives can be! All the best for her speedy recovery. xx

    Extra good wishes to you and your mum while she recovers.
    How lovely for you to have her sketch book. She sure is a talented lady and how pleased you must be to have inherited those genes! My dad can draw and paint, but none of us got the skill, it seems to have skipped a generation and my youngest son is the artist of the bunch.
    Bless you.
    Cheers
