Wildflowers

The wildflowers that have suddenly appeared in the garden are lovely. It's strange because since moving in 8 or so months ago we haven't touched the garden at all, in fact it is quite overgrown and totally apparent that the owners before us did nothing to make it look respectable so it didn't have much of a chance to begin with!

It's amazing that despite doing nothing, there is still this wonderful, colourful life bursting through the weeds and knee high grass!

I love Bluebells and we seem to have a wonderful abundance of them, almost looking like a meadow (ok the garden isn't THAT big!!) of periwinkle blue.


The Forget-me-nots are bursting through the wasteland that was once a kiddies play area and which will soon hopefully be re-turfed. They are so pretty though I would like to keep them somehow, may be I can replant them somewhere else.


The blossom is heavy on the trees which looks like confetti when the wind picks up. It is so pretty despite being an overgrown jungle.
