Six on Saturday is a weekly meme originally hosted by The Propagator but now in the tender care of Jim at Garden Ruminations.
Four more bags of second early potatoes have been planted – only two more to go. As I write this on Friday it’s a lot cooler but we’re yet to have any significant rain which means I’ll have to water everything newly planted by hand, and that means a lot of work.
One – The sweet face of a purple viola.
Two – The beautifully scented blooms of choiysa ternata.
Three – Am I alone in thinking this unfurling bud of allium schubertii looks like an unfriendly alien being?
Four – A clump of tulipa bakeri ‘Lilac Wonder’ with their faces open to the sun.
Five – The sweet smelling flowers of daphne x transatlantica ‘Eternal Fragrance’. You’ll have to take my word for it.
Six – A spire of the small, starry flowers of tiarella ‘Spring Symphony’ recently planted underneath one of our apple trees
