Colour in my Garden and a New Pal to Share our Home..

She's beautiful! We've just got a new puppy he's arriving in three weeks time, the house hasn't been the same since we lost our little dog and he only died in January :) garden looks beautiful too!

You should have put Harriet in a separate blog, she has completely outshone those lovely plants. Looks like she's on a mission in your last photo.

Welcome, little Harriet! Hopefully Brynner will look out for you.
Love your Hellebores Sue - they have appreciated moving!

Thankyou Dan, I will be looking out for an introduction to your little one soon then, we are in for a fun summer.

Oh she certainly was Siris, that was a top speed run, spend ages walking around the garden with her and she suddenly runs up the path to get indoors to use her puppy training pads, lol.. its so funny albeit frustrating, we've tried placing them outside for her but nope she holds it...

Brynner is being closely monitored Stera, he's so big and very boisterous, we are frightened he would hurt her without meaning to, I have no doubt when she's a bit bigger they will be good pals as he does miss Morgan, I think he will be calmer around her when they are able to be walked out together, Harriet has another four weeks before its safe to take her out and about..
I should have moved my Hellebores years ago Stera, where I first took notice of them was a shaded walk under a huge canopy of trees at Matlock Bath, thats why I thought my area would suit them, live and learn don't we...

Good to hear of members replacing lost pets a.s.a.p.

A lovely blog,Sue,and so lovely to see your spring garden,. and Harriet,who is just gorgeous..:o) What a little beauty she is,and so lucky to have such a good home with you and your family..I look forward to seeing her grow ,and I'm sure you will have lots to tell us about the antics she will no doubt get up to ! Lol..My yellow crocus were eaten by the birds too..but the rest are intact :o)

Pretty garden Sue, and super pics of lovely Harriet ... I kept checking the GoY blogs every day, waiting for you to post about her ! ha ha

Harriet is gorgeous Lincs I'm sure we will be seeing a lot more of her in the future (we hope ) I forgot to mention how pretty your selection of flowers are :o))

She's a real smasher Sue.

well the garden is waking up nicely and Harriet will appreciate all the sights and scents as she grows up. a real character in the making :o)

Lincs, you'd have thought a shady patch would have suited them fine wouldn't you - but as you say we live and learn...

Hello, Harriet. You remind me of my mother's dog, Nip, and if you grow up to be as good a dog as he was you will repay your owners a thousand fold.

What does the cat think of her?

Your plants look to be doing really well - I especially like your primroses and Hellebores - the birds seem to have left our primroses alone this year - it is the weevil grub that destroys our plants especially in the pots - if I am not careful - best wishes to Harriet - Jane

Lincs the garden is looking lovely. Glad you've got the hellebores to flower, they're lovely - your plants obviously didn't read the book did they lol.

Harriet is a sweetie, although do I see a mischievous glint in those eyes? Hehe to the puppy training pads, a colleague of mine had the same problem with her pup. If I can remembere tomorrow I'll ask how she solved it

Lincs your garden is lovely. Hellebores are all beautiful and I do like the primulas. I especially like Harriet. I had a chuckle at the training pads. What will they come up with next?

What a lively variety of Hellebores and lovely colour blooms abounding your garden.

Harriet is adorable lucky you hope she brings much fun to your home.

Harriet is gorgeous and Super cute! Look forward to seeing more pictures of her!
Lovely spring flowers too, but Harriet's definetly the star of the show for me! ?

Your spring flowers are so pretty, I especially like the hellibores they are doing so well since their move.

Harriet looks like she will be a big character & full of mischief, lol.
We used the training pads too, after about 3 months or so we put them away & took her outside when she looked as tho she needed to go. At night she slept in her crate.

Good to see all the spring flowers doing nicely and brightening the garden, and dear little Harriot would put a smile on anyones face. Like you I had hellibores in what I call the shady bed which had plenty of foliage but no flowers so I moved them to the middle bed which receives much more sunlight and they are now flowering their little socks off.
