As May draws to and end today, winter is here, though for me coming from northern Europe, walking about in sunshine and a temperature of 15C, it feels more like what we sometimes call a Scottish summer! To be fair, it was really cold earlier in the week, with snow on the hills around the city (now gone).
Anyway, here is our garden in winter, and yes, those are flowers you see!
The camellia bush outside the front door coming into flower
Impossible to capture the number of buds on the tree with my iPhone camera
Berries on a bush
There are white camellias too
Green autumn
Time to sweep up
