I love it when these poppies open. Petals resembling faded, washed silk. 

Exquisite. 

Wishing you all a good weekend. D.

Friday flowers: tulips are coming

A bunch of tulip bulbs were planted in the Autumn, lasagne style. 

I am not able to refer to my notes today so I am unable to confirm the variety of tulip. I am liking how the colour tone sits with the terracotta. Certainly they are a range from Sarah Raven, the Graceland tulip collection perhaps. 

Tip toe through the tulips time, enjoy.  D.

Friday : bonus

anemone nemorosa, friday flowers, Wood anemone

A walk with a friend is always nice especially when it is someone you haven’t seen in a while and the weather is nice. Despite setting off in drizzle the sun broke through momentarily. Dry and bright enough for the wood anemones to open. 

I love to see these delicate little flowers.

Have a good day. D.
