ZOOMING IN AND OUT

Here I am....late again for HELENA'S weekly meme:
Wednesday Meme

ZOOMING OUT

I've been starting to tidy up the garden this week...cutting back and getting rid of older plants which aren't looking so good any more...and I bought this little selection to replace some of the them:



ZOOMING IN


I particularly love the markings on this little viola!

My mum was just bemoaning the fact that it's too cold over there to contemplate any gardening....yet again I am reminded of how lucky I am to live in this little corner of our planet!

Hope the weather allows you to do something outdoors this weekend

Thanks for dropping by!
Take care of you

    Such beautiful flowers and a great angle - looks as if summer is here already! We are submerged in gloom here, so this has been a welcome eyeful :).

    Lovely to get a glimpse of sunshine and flowers. It's been dark all day here and wet and wild this evening. Not looking good for the weekend!

    lovely cheery blooms - I'm tempted by all the summer bulbs in the shops at the moment but agree with your Mum that it is to cold to contemplate working in my garden

    What a lovely splash of sunshine. Yes, not only is it too cold: we have had our garden furniture stacked up in the hall for weeks because it's too windy to have it outside

    I love the little old man faces on pansies etc - like crowds of people :-) Most things are being washed away here, let alone seeing any sun :-(

    Cheery little faced flowers aren't they. It's so grey and damp and drab here - thanks for a ray of sunshine :-)

    Snow (snow!) outside my window today, so I really enjoyed the peek at these beautiful spring-y flowers! Makes me smile.

    What a wonderful pair. I need to get out and clear out the garden boxes. It will be planting time here before I know it. The plum tree is already starting to blossom!
