Today I received a well-wrapped parcel containing several Campanula ‘alba’ kindly sent from Scottish . . . many thanks Angie!
Here are some photos from the garden today, but the sun is shining now, so I should have waited . . .

Ilex with Iberis
A favourite Hellebore
small Amelanchier grown as bush
Epimedium flowers (most leaves removed a la Monty!)
Honesty . . purple and white
Great white cherry (Prunus Tai Haku)
New second granddaughter, Francesca (Frankie), on her birthday (April 1st) with my beautiful daughter-in-law, Gabriella :)))
Happy gardening everyone, and thank you for looking!

Thanks Bloomer. We haven't had all that much sunshine, but it has been pleasantly mild, though cloudy. Better than fog - hope it clears soon!
