OK, so I've left it a little late this week to join in with Lou's foraging challenge for her Nature in the Home series. To be honest I was lacking inspiration but then my heart skipped a beat when I saw Karen's Kerria japonica and I knew instantly that I could find some spring treasures in my Mum's garden. Nothing gives me more pleasure than an hour or so of chat and coffee at my parent's home and on such a scintillating spring day I couldn't resist dropping by to catch up, bask in their conservatory and potter around their lovely established garden. I found Kerria japonica and so much more and my Mum wouldn't let me leave empty-handed. Plenty of spring pretties for my vintage bottles and my new garden. I just love the pastel shades of Forget-me-knots and Pulmonaria. See little green shed for more spring booty.
Love the Pulmonaria with its shades f blue and purple. There is always something in the garden.
ReplyDeleteLovely photos, the bottle really add another dimension to them too z
ReplyDeleteBeautiful little flowers! I love them. Great nature around ( and in) your home!
ReplyDeleteI've got a corner of my garden that I planted up last year, especially for spring, it's just starting to wake up and reward me for all my hard work! :) x
ReplyDeleteI love the way you have utilized the bottles to show off the spring flowers. Lifts the spirits doesn't it?
ReplyDeleteThere is so much colour in that garden. I wish mine was so well tended! You've picked some lovely posies, and they look great grouped in your vintage glass bottles. x
ReplyDeleteLove your photos with the bottles! Great to see so much blooming.
ReplyDeleteLovely flowers. We have a little jug full of forget me nots too!
