Iris reticulata

Cathy of Words and Herbs has presented a challenge to cheer us all up:

“From Sunday the 22nd through to Saturday the 28th let’s share a photo a day (or more than one if you like) of our flowers and gardens and brighten up this dreary time.”

These are my blue flowers for day 2

Tiny flowers

I sort of forgot it is Monday. Lockdown does that if we are not careful to keep focused. Joining Cathy who is clearly focused and knows it’s Monday and sharing a collection of flowers or foliage from the garden.

My tiny flowers are a white Viola, a couple of sprigs of Forget me nots, Pulmonaria flowers, Brunnera flowers from Dawson’s White and B macrophylla and a single piece of Anthriscus sylvestris or Cow parsley which is just beginning to open.

I have put them in a cut glass cream jug which I got from a bric-à-brac stall some years ago.

They are joined by some mini chocolate eggs.

It is Easter after all.

I hope you have a good week wherever you are. Thanks for reading and do stay safe. D.
