Glorious weather for Easter!

Sunshine, temperatures well up into the 20s, birds singing, frogs croaking .....
Grass growing like crazy and weeds trying to take over!  Its that time of year when everything looks vibrant, fresh and ready for the summer but its also the time of year when there's always a job of some sort that needs to be done whether its weeding, taking cuttings, planting or just enjoying!


 The roses are starting to bloom, this one is outside Mark's studio and is always the first.


Clumps of iris everywhere.


Bluebells in a wooded area.


Part of the gite garden looking neat and tidy after a mow.  Mark has got the pool clean and sparkly again ready for the swimming season.


One of our three wisterias.  This one is by the side of the gite parking area.  We allowed a rooted stem to grow into a free standing "bush" .  It's a blue/white variety.


This one is growing over the pergola in our back garden.  It's the first time it has flowered and they are more pink.


The third one adorns the front of our house, then leaps over towards the studio,


where it now reaches nearly to the far corner of this building too!  The flowers are a beautiful soft lilac and must be the favourite.  Happy days!
