On a sunny winter's day wandering down the garden it's easy enough to just focus on plants within your immediate level of vision. More often than not though it's also worth looking down to see some beauty, like this Hellebore in bloom that is a cheer to see in winter...
This post was initially inspired by fungi glistening with rain that fell the night before...
But there were others too that were a delight to see on a bright winter's day like...
Magnolia delavayi sprouting from the base. A symbol of hope and recovery from the fire
Saxifrage, Stone, and Moss
Euphorbia x pasteurii
Chrysosplenium macrophyllum
Galanthus - oh yes we have some of these too!
Mahonia eurybracteata (syn. confusa)
I'm so pining for spring now. Or at least the time when we can get fully stuck in mainly into gardening again, whichever comes first. The very thought of gardening is such a huge motivation to finish off all remaining bits of decorating still left to do in the house.Patience dear patience, it's only winter still!
