Plant Pictures

As you can see, I have been out with the camera again taking snaps of the various plants in our garden although I did not take any Marigold shots!  I will put them on another time. Although our garden does not compare with the garden of the previous entry, we have lots of colour, shape and form and it gives us great pleasure as you know.

Becky's appointment at the hospital did not go well. However, Becky does not want me to write too much about her personal business on here.  Suffice it to say that she is not happy and neither am I.

The weather has been grey and overcast all day and heavy rain is forecast for tomorrow which can only do the garden more good.  As you can see it is looking very colourful right now.

Margaret and Brian were so pleased with the pictures Mike took of their garden and we were happy to give them copies.  In return I have been given some plant cuttings so this evening I shall be preparing them and potting them up.

I hope to be visiting more of your journals tomorrowwhich is why I have done this entry this evening - to give myself more time as I have to do some work on the family tree, putting the finishing touches to it before it is sent out to selected relatives.

We had Nathan again today.  Where does that boy get his energy!!!!  Becky gave me a photo frame some time back with his name on it and an explanation of his name.  It also say "a dynamo".  Well, he certainly is.

Well, I hear plants calling.............

Beautiful flowers Jeannette, confirmed by J, who wants to just sit and look at them :o)  I don't know where little ones get their energy, I wish I had half the energy they have!  Thinking of Becky.

They're gorgeous Jeannette, still tended with loving care.  Thoughts for Becky.  It's been overcast here and a few leaves are falling off trees. xxRache

Beautiful!!! I particularly like the hollyhocks and asiatic lillies. I need a cutting garden so I can stop buying flowers at WalMart...

Absolutely glorious photos - so much wonderful colour! You really must spend a lot of time to get it looking like that - like something out of Country Life! Let's hope the rain comes soon.

I didn`t get any alerts from you today Jeannette, mind you I`m not sure mine are working either ! :-(  That`s nice of your neighbour to give you the plant cuttings.  You have some lovely flowers in your garden.  Hopefully next year we will have more than this year.  The heatwave and general change of climate has affected our plants a fair bit.  I don`t know the meaning of Kerry`s little one`s name, but I think I`ll look it up to see what we have in store!  lol  :-)
