Margaret’s Garden Part 2
Aside

I glanced through the kitchen window this morning and noticed a swarm of bees round a shrub with orange coloured flowers that I call burning bush. It’s Sunday Bank Holiday – naturellment - but we have left a message with ‘Jim’ a pest controller and meanwhile are lying low.
Here are the rest of Margaret’s treasures.

MARGARET’S GARDEN

Aside

God Almighty first planted a garden; and indeed, it is the purest of human pleasures.
Francis Bacon

Inspired by Naomi’s beautiful post on her Californian garden

I visited my friend Margaret whose garden is a fine example of English plants. Naomi is a gifted photographer and, alas, I am not, so forgive me please. If you click on them they will enlarge. Afterwards – over a cuppa- Margaret tried to identify them from my camera. Easier said than done but there it is.
