Our garden is looking quite green and lush at the moment but there are cracks in the earth here and there that show that we really do need a drop of rain. The past week has seen the temperature soaring here in Kent. The weather forecast is looking promising for rain and it is definately cooler today. It is hard when you like some warmth but equally, as gardeners, we need the rain too. The pinks look lovely and the scent is indescribable. My absolute favourite though has to be sweet peas, they remind me of my Gran. My Grandpa was very much a vegetable grower and thought that flowers were a waste of time, but he did grow these for her in a small patch, rather touching I think.The Fairy Gladehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02916053573656798878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8308715619105248833.post-18780372800193196562008-05-14T08:29:00.000+01:002008-05-14T08:29:00.000+01:00Your flowers look gorgeous, I wish I had green fin...Your flowers look gorgeous, I wish I had green fingers, but I once killed a spider plant, so my husband has to deal with that department.<BR/>That watercolour is gorgeous and what a wonderful price.

I am captivated by the colourful cottage picture you have - it has such a familiar look about it I'm sure I must have seen something like it before. Beautiful and dreamy.
