Sunday Scenes


Just a few flowers seen in my wild patch. Apart from the first picture, nothing planted, all self-seeded. I inspect the patch daily and never know what new beauty I will find.



















And finally, a much longed-for poppy

  4. "nothing planted, all self-seeded."

    Oh Valerie, what a magical green thumb you have. I'm totally impressed!

    And such a beautiful variety!

    Gorgeous color!

    Mel took the words right out of my mouth...

    "You have lily of the valley--which has an amazing scent! Lucky you!!"

    I love the scent of lily of the valley as well!

    Happy Sunday, dear lady!

    Enjoyed your Note For The Day. And it's ironic because "I" was actually born on a Sunday.

  5. Ron, it is nature that has the magic thumb. Pretty marvellous, eh? I just took a walk down to my hidden patch and saw the huge thistle flowers have now opened. The bees love them.

    How great to have been born on a Sunday... the old rhyme is true then! Not sure about me though, having been born on a Wednesday ...lol.

  6. What a beautiful area with wild flowers. The fact that you didn't plant any of these is amazing!
