Winter Beauty In Leighs Wood

It looks stunning Ba, I love the trees against the blue sky :-)

I liked that one best, too, Ba. :-)

I hope you were well-wrapped up, though! It sure looks brrrrrrrr............

Magic. Love the last two pictures especially.

Enjoyed the walk with you,Ba...lovely.It has finally thawed here tonight...but not for long,I hear..

~you could think it was blossom on the taller tree~is that just wishful thinking? roll on Spring!

Wonderful photos! I know we're all sick of it, but frost does some lovely magic, Lo)

Wow... great pics :o)

Nature never disappoints, even in winter. thanks ba.

Wow!!!! What a lot of comments, thank you so much everyone:-))))))) It's thawed here today too although still some snow remnants on the ground. I hope the forecasters have got it wrong and this is the last for a while. I do worry about the wild life and what will happen if this is the start of a new weather pattern. We've only just been persuaded to grow plants for hot dry weather lol:-) Isn't this a brilliant site:-))

brilliant ... reallyenjoyed the walk and never boreing .... stuning

Thanks Cristina:-)

thanks enjoyed the walk with you, lovely photos.

Hope you're feeling a bit better Chris.

Thanks Clarice:-)

Cristina, you poorly?

Just found this, BA, and love it. GORGEOUS photos - my favourite is third before the end . . . you could frame it. :)))

Do you live anywhere near Kingswinford? If so, you'll know the fabulous Ashwood Nurseries? I'm thinking of writing a blog on fave nurseries if I can find enough pics.

Thanks Sheila, I'm near Walsall which is some distance from Kingswinford without a car. I may have been there many moons ago in an earlier incarnation when visiting garden centres and Yellow Book gardens was my main vice:-)

Oh right, yes without a car would be tricky. That's a shame, as you would love it. Scooter?!

Motorbike?? lol:-) I could, I suppose, get a train or buses, but wouldn't be able to bring much back with me. I'll google them:-)

Not bringing much back would be a HUGE disadvantage. What you need is a good gardening friend with a CAR! Or a local group?? (I run a local gardening group, and we car-share all over the place :))

How lovely, nothing like that here I'm afraid:-)

Aaaww, shame. Would you fancy starting one?? :)

Sheila, they may think I was just doing it to get lifts...as if 8~] that's supposed to be an innocent face:-)

Well . . . if you know someone who'd enjoy the trip (only half-an-hour away), you could always offer a contribution to the petrol, or a bottle of red for the driver (to be consumed at a later date!).

I wish Sheila, wouldn't mind paying all the petrol :-)

I've just come across a leaflet from Ashwood nurseries Sheila which I brought home from Gardeners World Live (easily reached by public transport). It looks amazing, i would love to see John's garden there

Yes, it is beautiful. Only open about four days a year, I think. I've got some pictures, which I'll try to upload!

Brilliant:-)

Well, I've found them, but I'm not the best-ever photographer . . . still, it's a taste! :))

lol only just got back to this blog ............. the pics are stuning born .................. and yes i was quite poorly at the time , had that dreaded flue !! hope you are well .......... ;0)))

I am Cristina lol, there are so many things I've got to try to catch up on too, do you think we'll ever catch up on all of them? Maybe if we had two lifetimes lol:-)

lol born ................... so much to do !!!! just mainly looking at blogs at mo . of too judge at the local horse show now .;0))))

Eeek!! you're very brave Cristina...I would be far too big a coward:-(

i loved it ................

What about all those evil glares from those who didn't win? Maybe it's not the same as dog shows? :-)

haha lol its the same .................. you think you going to get lynched !!! sharp exit right lol
