What a glorious day. We have blue skies, sunshine, and a hoar of frost which has made the lawn sparkle. What's more, there are so many flowers in my garden, considering that it is only the second week in January, and early spring bulbs are thrusting up shoots in the tubs, pots and troughs. Days like this are heaven sent to raise earthly spirits like mine. This time of year fills me full of anticipation for the coming spring and although we keep on having terrible weather throughout the year here in the UK, the optimist in me, the gardening optimist that is, just hangs on in there. I took these photos of the primulas this morning. For some reason I cannot make the primula photos appear landscape no matter what computer adjustments I make so do forgive that!
