Forsythia

Stunning Annella

Nearly had one of these Saturday. Picked it up and put it back twice! Never really liked them for some reason....perhaps it's just the colour. There is a white one which I might like better. They are lovely and cheerful in the spring, but I'm just not a yellow fan. Even the daffs sometimes irk me a bit after a while.....weird I know! I love lemon though!

I'm not a yellow fan either Karen but at this time of the year it brightens up the side hedge. The only colour at the moment comes from the Daffs, Forsythia and the golden Choisyas dotted around the garden (I would have said Escallonias but they have all gone). It looks nice when the Muscari and Aubretia join in but doesn't last for long....Then it's time for hot pinks!

Won't be long now Annie! I have my Cornus Mas with
its acid yellow flowers, and the early cherry blossom, but that's about it at the moment. Having all the Hellebores makes a huge difference to the ground colour though.
