A mix in April

A mix of blooms and other things.

This was made from a hanging basket moss chicken wire, cones and bits of sticks from around the area.

This fairy Bluebell house and garden was made by cutting the shape out the front of the pot then filled with soil adding the piece cut out back into the pot to create a wall to make a higher level the path are gem stones. The grass is astro turf and real violas planted in it.

Beautiful flowers/blooms here Thrup! The pink hue on the tree peony is lovely! The paler one is equally pretty! Lovely blousey flowers! Oh, and a fern frond unfurling..always a treat!

The tree peonies are glorious and the water lily is a stunning colour. Little fairy people should be jealous of the delightful displays you have made, very inventive.

the snow is just off my frog pond and it doesn't look good for my nympheae... wasn't sunk deep enough last autumn and the leaves are black and the water brackish... I hope I didn't lose it..I've had it for over a decade. This one looks really pretty and with a name like copper it should be outstanding.

Thank you Kate the fern I dug up years ago from my eldest daughters garden she was going to throw it.

Thank you Seaburngirl I did have another Fern but it's disappeared I think as there is no sign of its return.

Thank you Daylily the white Peony is my youngest daughters favourite too.

Thank you Honeysuckle so pleased you like the fairy display and Tree Peonys I just hope the water lily grows and comes true to colour.

Thank you Lori. Let's hope your nympheae survives it would be such a shame for you to have lost it after all those years. Your weather sounds awful over there.

I love the gipsy caravan and bluebell cottage - what a nice little world to live in.
Your tree peonies are beautiful. You have some lovely rich colours all around you.

I love your miniature worlds at the top - very clever. I'd like to try making stuff like that - perhaps now there is more time at home I will do! I certainly have collected enough bits and pieces to do so...
Lovely peony too - can't wait for mine to come out.
You've caught the maroon flower perfectly - but I can't decide whether its a clematis - or an unusual pasque flower....

Thank you Hoya . We have now got a bit of sun so it's the best time to start .
I am pleased you like the Tree Peony .
