Please excuse this flight of fancy, it may be lockdown isolation which is getting to me, or perhaps the home-schooling but my mind has wandered off into a fantasy land where my alter-ego Flora lives.
Flora lives for her plants and adores her garden…
She has all the gear (and no idea) and can’t wait for the spring flowers to fully appear once the snow and frosts have passed. Flora is like a tightly coiled spring ready to burst into action once winter loosens its grip on her new garden.
After years spent living abroad without a proper garden to call her own and all that time spent watching Gardeners World from afar and dreaming of having a huge garden like Monty’s she now finds herself living in the suburbs with a rather smaller plot than ‘Long Meadow’ but it’s hers nonetheless.
What will this year have in store for her as she sees shoots of new life appear in her new plot?
Watch this space…
Love her! She is perfect and the basket is the cutest. Well done, I am so impressed!

I can’t get on with Amigurumi, it has gone into my ‘never again’ category. 🙂

Thanks Sandra, I feel much the same about Tunisian crochet – can’t get it right!

I already love Flora! Please tell her about the Telegraph’s gardening newsletter. She’s not used to gardening in cold weather and this will give her ideas and tips. I’ve just subscribed. She doesn’t need to be purchasing the newspaper itself is she doesn’t want to!

Oh that’s a super tip thank you! Yes, she won’t have year round geraniums here that’s for sure! 🙂
