Time for a shot from the garden. Focus could be better. This is from six weeks ago, I admit. I forgot to post this back then. After we had that little bit of rain, various bulbs began to sprout leaves, and in a short time, I had a few new flowers here and there. An unexpected treat. These are galdiolus carmineus, I think, given to me by my neighbour Carolyn, before she moved away. She gave me a whole set of lines of bulbs to carry on. I showed you the gladiolus tristis and the babiana during the Spring.

I’m sure that you are too old to remember the Dave Clark Five and their amazing, and much lampooned (pace Gladys) “”I’m feeling’ Glad All Over’ Whatever, Dame Edna put to one side, gladiolli are among the most beautiful flowers on God’s Earth - chose your deity.
