I'm joining in with Cathy from 'Words And Herbs' who kindly invites us every year about this time to share some photos of flowers that have given us pleasure over the year. This is a lovely way to brighten up what can be dull and dark days in the northern hemisphere. Today is such a day - damp and drear albeit very mild.
When looking at the photos I've taken in my garden this year I soon came to the conclusion that I took very few photos after June - plenty in gardens we visited over the summer but barely any in my own! I must try to remedy that next year. So my contributions this week are going to be winter/spring top heavy and no apologies for starting with possibly one of my favourite flowers which is galanthus 'Trumps' taken at the end of January. It's a great snowdrop for clumping up quickly and making an impact in the border.
Thank you Cathy for providing us with both fun and a pop of colour this week. Its' a special day today as it's our wedding anniversary so there's a meal to be cooked and a glass of celebratory wine ahead. I'll be back later this evening to visit other bloggers.
Absolutely perfect Anna! When I see snowdrops I always think of you! And a lovely thought that they will soon be flowering again and we have gone full circle. Happy anniversary to you and your hubby!
ReplyDeleteYes not long to wait now Cathy 😂 A couple of mine have been and gone over already and others are on the very early side and are waiting in the wings.
DeleteI always love seeing snowdrops online, even though I haven't a chance of growing them myself. Even "summer snowflakes" (Leucojum aestivum) don't do well here.
ReplyDeleteGlad that you can still enjoy them Kris albeit from a distance 😀
DeleteGreat photo! It is a beautiful, distinctive snowdrop. Not to long until we see them again ... ❤️ Allison
ReplyDeleteIt's a rather special one Allison and as you rightly say it's distinctive. Not long at all to welcome them to the party again 😂
