Snakes Head Fritillary

Skulking in the gloom and rain...again

A couple of weeks ago (when the sun last shone...do you remember?). I went into garden shop mode and ordered a good few plants to re-stock and add a bit of something new to the garden for this summer. Imagine my delight after driving home in the hissing rain to find them waiting. As many of them were "live" plants there was nothing for it but to get wrapped up and get them unpacked and installed in temporary homes. Brrrr! Chuffing freezing

Still I couldn't see my babies lying unloved and thirsty after their long journey. I shall, of course, be rewarded by them and they will all recover and flower their little socks off all summer. Won't they?
