I thought I would start posting a few photos. Many of them will be from my garden. My "Grace" rose is covered in blooms right now.  |

I've just downloaded three films called Lily - what a nice coincidence.
Ok - they were Lily (2013), Lili (1997), and La petite Lili (2003).
Good pics though.

This is a particular favourite of mine,although it lasts a very short time. It is called Rhapsody in Blue,which incidentally is also the name of my favourite piece of music.  |

This Azalea was given to me for Mothers' Day about 15 years ago. It was tiny in a basket. I planted it out and it has grown year on year. It's really spectacular when it's in flower.  |

I love Poppies. My neighbour has a huge drift of them and kindly gave me a root last year.
I dug it in and it was just starting to sprout when my OH decided to "tidy" the border where I planted it. He dug it out and threw it away.
I didn't realise until there were no shoots showing.OH admitted he had got rid of all the "rubbish" in that border.
I could have throttled him.

This is a Harry Wheatcroft rose. Many of you may remember Harry. He was a very colourful character who grew spectacular roses. He had a handlebar moustache and wore very loud checked suits.  |

Although this looks like the deck of a ship,it's actually at the Trafford shopping centre in Manchester.  |

Another photo from The Trafford centre. That red stone IS real marble. It seems money is no object there.  |
