A Sad Reflection…

It was lovely to see all those entries from the ‘Six on Saturday’ gardeners when I logged into my blog yesterday morning. Such a wonderful assortment of lovely flowers! 

I don’t have a clue what’s happening in my own garden at the moment, being confined to barracks, so to speak.

All I get to see is what I can see from my window, and that’s not much.

It’s probably best that I don’t see the chaos that is undoubtedly ruling out there in my absence.

I find myself desperately wondering what the baby magnolia is doing, or the rhododendron?

Both of these images were taken last year…

And are there any flower buds on the wisteria this year?

Not mine, unfortunately…

This would be a miracle, as it doesn’t seem to want to perform, but I would hate to miss it if this is the year it does.

It’s probably best that I can’t see it all, as what I can see is depressing enough.

Some of my bonsai desperately need trimming. I have enlisted regular help with the watering, but I won’t let anyone near them with a pair of scissors!

As I sit in my office stroke bedroom, looking through my window, I tend to keep my vision elevated to the massive gum tree in the next door’s garden. It dominates the sky from where I sit, and I love to watch the branches swaying in the wind, and all the birds who come to sit on the branches…
