Well it was a beautifully bright day at RHS Harlow Carr this month. But I did choose to paint the tiny cyclamen and snowdrops which involved scrabbling around on the floor in the dirt ! No pain no gain and lets face it there was pain as at 55 3 hours spent on a woodland floor makes standing up again something of a challenge. So fortunately I had a lovely friend/customer to meet for lunch in Betty's tearoom which felt like a beacon calling me!

I discovered the scented garden this month and could see the fabric of the garden upon which so much relies in the summer. So the fences and arbours and edges, many of which are lovingly woven. I cannot believe that I am in my 8th month already . its' passing so quickly and i will be sad not to be going every month.

I will be painting in their garden for their Spring Festival all weekend on the 5/6th May and also on their Free day on the 20th March
