You should be like the last one or

You should be a Cherry Blossom - but your not!!

So as your still blooming. . .

Wilf and Alice

I have just got back from Galton Garden Centre. Which is part of the Gardening Club! I went with my mum just to have a look. To get some ideas and that.... But it is lethal I always end up leaving with more than I wanted! 

This is what I ended up leaving with...



I bought two strawberry plants called Alice!



Since planting my Alpine strawberries up in a window box on the wall, that I have grown from seed!  I decided I wanted some normal size Strawberry's.
Plus I don't really want to rely on the supermarkets

This is how they look now. 




Then I went into the shop part of the centre. The place as a cafe, kids area and the Edinburgh Woollen Mill

Anyway while I was in the garden shop I met a guy called Wilf, I fell head over heels in love... He is know as Woodland Wilf to his friends. . . . laugh out loud! 

Wilf as heaps of hobbies and REALLY knows how to charm the lady's!


I have also seen a few more thing's I want to get.  But I will have to wait til pay day!

Blooming

April was another slow month, every time I wonder past my Grandmothers tree. All it seem to be doing was sitting there minding its own business!!!

Then all of a sudden, boom..... Leave's appeared!!!!
I tried a few times to get picture's of the tree with leaves. I had the weather against me. Every time I tried to get pix's it started off nice and then started to rain or it was nice and I was at work! So I failed terribly... :-( 

So I went yesterday to see my grandmothers tree as it was my day off and outside was beautiful okay a bit blowny as well. Got to the little park, to find Grandmothers tree was in Bloom! 





I even notice how the little plants from around the basic of the tree have perked up nicely!!




I just love how the council gardeners have lefted them where they are.... I know some would be class as weeds. But to me a weed is just a plant in the wrong place.. As you might guess I believe they are pretty where they are!

Before I forget I got a picture of the blossom, if that's what you can call it!



Now I have the task of trying to find out what my Grandmother's tree is!
