A lightening paced, blink and you’ll miss it, here’s-one-I-typed-a-few-days-earlier Six on Saturday (I’m in the Big Smoke as I post this and about to enjoy a Premier Inn breakfast).
1-3. The deliciously fragrant flowers of the Korean Lilac (Syringa meyeri ‘Palibin’) have begun to open, the daisies out the front (the offspring of a plant from the former free plant nursery up in North Wales) are blooming away, and the Bluebells at the nearby Hestercombe Gardens were looking rather splendid last Sunday.
4-6. The rather straggly and possibly short-lived perennial Erysimum ‘Apricot Twist’ got chopped back a few days ago. Cuttings have been taken and the flowers are filling the living room with their wonderful scent (which oddly enough is rather orangey). The Daphne x transatlantica ‘Pink Fragrance’ is doing it’s perfumed pink petally thing by the back door, and look who’s returned! Actually, there have been at least three hedgehogs in the garden these past few weeks – and there was a bit of hedgehog courting too!
They were my Six on Saturday, a meme originally started by The Propagator. For more Sixes on Saturday, from all around the world, head over to the blog of the current Six on Saturday host, Jim.
