2nd January 2005
Fabulous sunny but cold day to start the New
Year. Went for a clear up in the garden.
|
| The yellow gorse by the greenhouse is in flower. |
|
|
| You can see the River Wey and the water meadows through the gap in the trees by the belvedere. |
|
| A bit of a sparkle on the river in this one |
|
| Just planted several hundred Cistus shrubs on the bank above where we have built the beech log retaining wall. Should be a riot of colour (pinks, blues and whites) next year |
|
| Loads of cyclamen in pots by the front door. |
|
| Witch hazel has just come out |
|
|
| The primroses and polyanthus are out too |
|
| Perhaps the most surprising find was that the osteospermums were STILL in bloom. What value! Maybe these will make it through to next summer. We have a hardy variety...but these were meant to be annuals. |
