Peony

My favourite flower is a Peony, I just love them! The way they are so big & blousey.
When we lost my lovely Grandma, I dug up her Peony in her wonderful garden as the house was being sold & planted it in a plant pot.
I read in many a book that if a Peony was moved it wouldn't flower again but........look what I spotted this morning!
Its not actually flowering yet so I don't know if I have succeded but ts more than I thought would happen.

A New Arrival

It is now official..... I own a Van!
At the moment it is white (with a slight hint of mud) & I could be any type of tradesman - Plumber, Electrician, you name it.

Soon it will be transformed into a pink Van, GROSS I hear you cry! It wont be bright, in your face pink but subtle pale pink. Fingers crossed anyway!

Here's a picture, I've named him Victor. Not sure how he'll feel about being pink ;)
I shall keep you updated on the progress of the pinkness.

Spring Week - Day One

Day One - Yellow
I have decided to capture all things spring & yellow today. As the weather has turned slightly warmer & all the bulbs in the Gardens have started to poke their heads through the ground.
