It's the May Bank holiday in Britain and it can only mean one thing in our household - time for the summer beddings to be put out on display! John, for all his disdain of the British stereotypes, is an Englishman at heart, at least for his obsession with the garden. And regardless of how big or small the space we have to grow a garden, he always manages to bring it all to life, each year more impressive than the last.I have very little input in these endeavors. Alas all I can offer is to let him know what colours I would love to wake up to when I look out of the window every morning until the summer days have gone. But the little man? The garden is definitely a treat for his senses and who knows, he will hopefully inherit his daddy's green thumb!
But as the flowers won't be coming out for awhile, I am showcasing last year's garden exhibit at our tiny communal garden on a space where the outdoor toilets used to stand. It just shows how a little creativity can go a long way and inspire the neighbours to keep up too!
'Children, marriages and flower gardens reflect the kind of care they get' ~ a wise man said. Who would argue with that?
