What a lovely day it's been. Our weather is amazing ! This afternoon, it didn't feel like spring - it felt like summer !! Wonderful. I just hope we are not in for a cold spell or my garden won't know what's hit it.
On our way back from Thame this morning, we stopped in at Focus in Didcot, just for a browse. It's a gardening and DIY superstore. They have quite a comprehensive gardening section, and I thoroughly enjoyed our visit. I must admit I have spent way too much on the garden lately, so wasn't planning on buying anything. But when you see little bargains like this...well - what can you do ??
This sweet little rose was marked down to £2.99. It is over 12inches high, looks very healthy, but has obviously lost its labels. It's marked "colour & type unknown", so it will be a surprise when it blooms.
And these 2 healthy, happy little azaleas ? Both of them for £5.99. Well..what can I say ? They called out to me, and I answered ! Baz hobbled along behind grumbling. Serves him right for waking me up at 5am.
One thing that we looked at in Focus was this wonderful gazebo !! Isn't it beautiful. If only we had more space. Mind you, it would fit in the middle of the garden beautifully, and would be like an extra room all summer (when it's blazing hot out there). And then we could pack it away during the winter months. Well...that was my sales pitch...but Baz wasn't falling for it. I'm working on him. LOL !!
