The best thing about this time of year......


         ......is the arrival of all the spring flowers in the shops....
 

       ......Mimosa, my mums favourite, I can smell these as soon as I walk into the room.  Bought them at a street stall in London at the weekend.  I've never really seen them for sale round here before.


       Even my old old Orchid is making an effort, look at his chewed leaf though.  The snails in the greenhouse got him when I put him out there for his summer holidays.  I thought my orchids would have been safe out there with having such thick tough leaves.  Obviously not.

 

      There's always one isn't there....

 

        ......despite watering it for the last 3 weeks there is still no sign of life in my pot.  Wondering if Selina, or Penny's is doing any better?
