I really shouldn’t be here. If I was being responsible, I’d be out in the garden, tackling the weeds.
Yesterday, was all about laundry, but I took a few pictures in between hanging out the washing.
Colours are creeping back in with a vengeance…

And taking the pictures in close up makes it harder to see the weeds. (Oh alright, who am I kidding…)
I suppose I know what I’ll be doing this afternoon.
I love Aquilegia, have some lovely pink ones and bought an almost black one at the week-end, lovely photos 🙂
All my aquilegias come from my late mother’s garden – they have self-seeded over the years and I’m especially fond of them.
I love aquilegias too, I think it’s the way they just pop up and grow all over the place and they cross-pollinate so randomly you never know what colour they’re going to be. Happy weeding, but if you don’t get around to it remember that a weed is just ‘a wildflower out of place’…
I am coming to the same view on weeds – they give my garden most of it’s structure – just have to stop the bullies taking over completely. And yes, until the aquilegias starting reproducing I hadn’t realised they come in different colours – an added excitement!
Ah I love aquilegias too, though I have never sucesscully grown one. I tihnk maybe I’ll have to try again… its been a few years.
They’re rampant in our garden, but nothing to do with my efforts – they just like it here I suppose.
