Lenten Rose.....

Or it's real name...Hellebore....
It's doing nicely and will be in flower for Easter which is a bonus.....
I've been working all day in the garden ....taking advantage of what apparently is the last day of our current dry spell...
The rain is coming tonight.......!
But I've won! ....I've managed to cut cut back and down all of last years withered growth....and filled several bins and my composter in the process......
Feeling chuffed now but wrecked and feeling the strain in my back......so its two paracetamol and sit-down coffee time...
And Mel agrees with me totally......she's curled up in her bed too.....busy morning "seeing to" squirrels..birds and bin men!!!!
