I love my garden 😍 ❀️, my mum would love it too. I started it after her death as a memorial garden, with flowers she used to have at home. Now, the place is evolving as I learn more about plants finding new species. The core is still the summer cut flowers.

If you wonder why all these lovelies are inside. We are having a luvly(!) morning, gale force strong wind in the costal part of the North. Here, the gusts are tearing down my gladioli.
