Rising Mist.....

There was a frost this morning. Maisie and I were out early....The grasses were white with frost, the wild plum trees had burst out in blossom and there was mist rising from the river. A magic place. We had wall to wall sunshine all day but there was a cool easterly breeze this afternoon. Last night’s nasty hailstorm has unfortunately shredded the leaves on a number of our Polyanthus plants. Kevin, the guest cat, whilst strolling around the garden found his favourite plant.... a clump of catmint.
