I think this is such a pretty flower and although some might consider it simple, I like that’s it’s easy on the eye and bright in colour.

Creamy elegance
I love roses and the white ones I find especially elegant. This beauty is growing in our garden which I luckily can admire everyday.
Drink in colour
I bought these glasses a while ago and just couldn’t resist the bright, fun colours and pretty patterns. They’re usually reserved for special occasions but I think they’ll go down well at the next barbeque or dinner we have.
Garden strawberries
I recently posted about the flowering strawberry plants that I have in my garden this year, and with the warmer weather they’ve now begun bearing fruit. There’s only a few ripe ones at a time but it’s satisfying to check them regularly and see if there’s any that can be picked.

Strawberry blossom
The strawberry plants we bought from the garden centre are coming along nicely, the flower blossoms and the beginnings of fruit in this photo are a good sign and I can’t wait until they grow, ripen and are ready to eat
Cacti
I saw these miniature cacti and remembered how much my sister likes them so decided to get them for her. Within a few days I could see how they’d grown and sprouted pretty flowers
I love the pop of colour of the flowers and the almost geometrical pattern of the sharp thorns/leaves. I find these plants really interesting, each slightly different but part of the same family.
Trip to the garden centre
Every year in early Spring my mum visits our local garden centre to buy a range of plants for our garden, this year I happened to have a few days of work so decided to tag along. There was a wide range of flower and vegetable plants to choose from.
There were also some interesting garden ornaments; I love the giant chess pieces and the elephants and cheeky gnomes would make a nice addition to any garden too. I was also intrigued to see the old fashioned styled brooms made of straw.
We got a little carried away and it was hard to not buy at least one of everything, but in the end we chose some strawberry and pepper plants and and variety of flowers so we have a range of treats for the eyes and tastebuds to look forward to.
Hot look
These chillies and garlic bulbs were hanging from a stall selling Italian food (and quite creatively seem to represent the Italian flag). I think they’d look great hanging in a kitchen and would add a hot kick to any dish
Violet stalk
I really like the violet ‘bulbs’ of this flower which look like they could burst open at any time. I also like how the stalk growing tall and straight has a violet hue to match
