Standing at the bus stop last Saturday I could not resist taking these photos - the sky was a beautiful blue and the village looked perfect. We are indeed lucky to live in such a beautiful village.
A few flowers in the garden.
 |
| Sarcococca - sometimes called Christmas Box. I have this growing by the front door and the scent is quite delicious on a sunny day in February. |
 |
| Hellebores - I have some white ones as well, but they look a bit 'muddy' this year. |
 |
| Aahh ... snowdrops |
 |
| Vinca - or Periwinkle - this flowers sporadically through the year. It also spreads and I pull it up regularly. |
 |
| Cyclamen coum - hardy cyclamen |
 |
Daffodils - of course. These are Tete-a-tete. I buy a few planted-up pots from the supermarket each year and grow them indoors in the conservatory or porch and plant them out to flower in the garden the following year.
