A short walk around the garden on the shortest day has revealed that some plants are still hanging on from last season and others are heralding the next.
Alpine strawberries in the shelter of the mimosa tree still carry a flower or two, while the Viburnum bodnantense is in full flower and the hellebores and camellias are budding up nicely.
Your little strawberries are soo cute! I wonder where my Hellebores are though? You’ve just reminded me. I’ll have to go and check if/when the rain stops!
Hellebores are budding up nicely here too. Can’t wait to see their blooms
