looking back: april blooms

The garden a few weeks back, most of these blooms have faded and gone, and different plants have stepped up to the stage. But since it's pouring with rain out there today, I'm happy to simply look back and enjoy and old but sunny day.

I'm a little obsessed with plants these days. You may well have noticed here on the blog! 

• Best way to pass time on the train, The Plant journal
• bluebells peeking through the lavender
• more plants in the studio
• a pretty auricula, named Argus
• a lonely plant on the tracks
• making moodboards
• it's not just me, Mouse loves the garden too
• taking over the spare room

round and round the garden

• Beautiful orange tulips with my favourite euphorbia griffithii [fireglow]. 
• Pie the little rascal, very protective of Miss Tit these days.
• Blocks of colour against the old wall. Too many really, Mum's been helping by weeding them out.
