Simple mind, simple pleasures

My mum used to say little things please little minds but it doesn't seem the same.
 In a week of grey, It was worth getting up to:

(It isn't snow, it's perlite cos I hadn't any vermiculite or whatever it's called.) And over the week, all my windowsill plants germinated - 4 kinds of cosmos, tomatoes (sungold) and nasturtiums.

And today it's sunny enough for the cats next door to try out the garden furniture.

And for the plants from my greenhouse to try life outdoors.

















When these first came through I thought they were tulips,

Then when they got their buds, I realised they were aliums and thought, oo, lovely blue

 

NOT!

 

But this aquilegia is making up for it.
