Cornus

The bug really took a hold over the last two days. I've only moved from bed to sofa to chair. Today I got my appetite back, and my body felt almost my own again. Then in the shower this morning I twisted, causing a spasm in my back. Completely incapacitated me, couldn't even get out and pick up the towel. Poor husband to the rescue, met with not a pretty sight. Good thing we've been married a long time, no mysterious romantic secrets left. Sadly.

But I got to walk round the garden after painkilling gel did its work, and tea in the arbour was a pleasure after being horizontal for so long. This delicate little cornus is just in front of the arbour, doing well since it's less than a year since we planted it.
