Welcome May and all the flowers that come with it! We are getting a good rain today, and the next two days are to be really warm so I suspect that we are going to start having more flowers than the lovely tulips. Yes, we will still have the lovely tulips, but now to add to that we have frittilaria, leucojum, (which is like giant lily of the valley), the alliums are budding up, I still have some hellebores to harvest, still lots of heirloom narcissus. I mean look at the offerings from last week! And it will only get better from here out. YAY
I will also have the very first anemone to offer this week. There aren’t many and they will be incorporated into the posies, but this is exciting and the ranunculus shouldn’t be far behind in the offerings. I hope.
Mothers Day is nearly upon us and I will be offering something special at the flower shed on Friday to celebrate. Haven’t quite decided yet, but it will be exciting for sure.
The first batch of cool flowers has been planted out into the garden and the perennials and the self seeders from last year are all looking good. The rodents really liked the perennial anemone over the winter or early spring, but I planted them, or what was left of them back in the ground, gave them a pep talk and am keeping my fingers crossed. Seeding and transplanting are still taking place and I am happily busy.
I am having a blast doing my #windowframethursdays I lets me really be creative. This was last weeks creation and I really like it if I must say so.
An offering of what I am harvesting at the moment, put into an arrangement.
I will close here. Steve is away, so there will be no proofreading, except for me, so please excuse the grammar, punctuation, spelling and everything else. Also, I will be sending this out so if you get this, yay! I remembered how to do it.
Allie. I dream of flowers.
