SPRING JUST ROUND THE CORNER.?

I certainly don't have green fingers like my Dad, but how I need flowers and plants around me, inside and outside! They are woven into my senses so deeply, that without them I feel jaded. After Christmas our little winter cherry began to look jaded too, but reluctant to discard it after it had given so much joy, I put it out of sight,-and hoped.
            This morning  I suddenly realised that it was shooting new growth!This sudden revelation of new life never fails to lift my spirits.Imperceptibly Spring creeps up on us, and then we are lifted into a gentle breath of sweet revitalised air, with a fragrance, a newness a freshness that intoxicates.
I'm not sure what to do now with the winter cherry; Malta weather is quite different from England. I may try it outside once the winds settle a bit,---- then we'll see!

My green thumbs came only as a result of the mistakes I made while learning to see things from the plants point of view.----H. Fred Dale.

When one of my plants dies I die a little inside too.-----Linda Solegate.
