I really wanted to take part in another #Six on Saturday this week, but sadly, our little garden is waterlogged. Any flowers that were grimly hanging on, have been reduced to a soggy mess from all the rain.
This had me remembering all the lovely flowers that have made me smile this year.
I am not sure what happened to this African Violet. It was a beautiful gift and well worth remembering…
Another lovely memory. This Christmas cactus cheered me up during the long winter months…
This stunning plant is a Myrtle. It lives in our front garden, and passers-by stop to admire it when in bloom…
This laburnum bonsai is struggling now and may not make it. A victim of root rot, either from a parasite or too much rain, it is bravely hanging on there, in fresh soil.
My favourite rhododendron, bravely fighting the brambles at the bottom of the garden. I have tried to remove them, but their roots seem to be intertwined…
Last, but not least, my favourite memory of the summer… Honeysuckle in all its glory…
A wonderful year, by anyone’s standards. Hopefully I will see most of them again next year…
