Every garden may have some weeds.
The garden in our new house has been pretty neglected over the years, but I found these pretty little weeds today.
Let's get down and dirty.
Oooh look what I found when I was snooping round the garden - yeuch!!! And we don't even have a dog.
Scatter seeds of happiness.
Zoe insisted on buying some seeds the other day as she wants to grow some flowers - mind you they haven't been planted yet.
A thing of beauty is a joy forever.
Look at these tiny little daffodils. I am not very tall but even sitting down, I am much bigger than them. Aren't they cute?
You should compost because a rind is a terrible thing to waste.
James has been cutting back some of the bushes and stuff and has made a big pile of it all. But I found this big bin behind it which I presume is a compost bin. Trouble is there was so many cuttings in front that I couldn't get near it to see what it was like inside. Another left over from the previous owners.
I never promised you a rose garden.
Claire assures me that this is a rose bush - I will wait and see!
There is never enough thyme.
We are not ones to grow our own herbs so I had to have a scrummage through the food cupboards and this is the closest thing I could find.

  1. LOL at the dog bin! Cute daff and I'm sure Zoe does a great job of growing those seeds. Probably best to steer clear of that compost bin, bet it has been stewing for a while - yuk. Monkey x

  2. Those pretty weeds look a lot like violets to me Pamela. Ours haven't come out yet. Probably lots of lovely compost in that bin if you could get to it.Thank you for doing my prompts - glad you got out in the garden.

  5. Oh Pamela, would have thought you are too much of a girly girl to be out in the garden, unless it is in your bikini, lying on the sun lounger! Luv Hedgie x
