Spring is Sprung (well almost :)

Well at least the snowdrops appear to have thrived on the excess of rain we have had latetly giving Mr Elwes one of his best ever shows @ Colesbourne - home of the national snowdrop collection and almost on our doorstep.






Whilst some of the trees had suffered  









                   

 and the mill stream was if full flow








Colesbourne simply exudes calm and tranquillity - even on a busy day.











Delicately interwoven are dashes of colour provided by hellebores, miniature daffodiles, cyclamen, aconites and snowflake.



Yes, I know, there will be a few chilly blasts before the 'grass is ris' but its great to see the colour slowly returning - even in our own garden.









So fingers crossed n keep smiling.
