Hope all of you who work outside for a living or open your gardens to the public are finding some dryer days to catch up. Has been a hard start to 2024, but it will improve, the plants are coming on strongly, grass is growing and trees coming into leaf, good luck to all.

Rather like this new tulip for me ( the pale one). It’s called “Fay” - must have bought with you in mind Fay Shulton !
Paired with Ayaan and Barcelona.

Sending love for the weekend 💕

Happy New Year to you all, may it be a good year for you all. Wishing you good health and happiness.
