Just before Ian and I leave on our trip to Holland I thought I'd post a few photographs for you all of some of the plants and flowers in our garden.

Primroses.



Water buttercups in our pond.



Little pear tree.



Grape hyacinth and white anaemone.



Euphorbia. Can you spot my little Dooley?



Red acer.



Strawberries in flower.



Quince bush flowering VERY early.



Thrift.



Bluebells.



Pieris.



Bleeding heart.



Tulips.











Lavender.



Azaelea.



Peony rose.



Some of my clematis ready to flower.





Lily, iris and others.



I think I'll leave it there before I bore you all too much.

Not boring at all Eileen. Your lavender is ahead of mine, I only have one bud forming on one plant.
Will you have computer access on the trip so you can send us updates as you go?

Bet you'll be sad to leave all of that loveliness behind Eils. Love the tulip pics. We'll miss you while you are away. Have a great trip!

Oh my, I missed this somehow,
when you first posted it.

I'm so glad that I was doing a little snooping and found it today!
How absolutely glorious everything looks,
and just think of all the bright and beautiful treasures
you'll be bringing back to add!!
