The First Camellias

Today the last few of our roses including the pink climber; the light pink Generous Gardener reaching the top of the lopped cypress; pink Festive Jewel and yellow Absolutely Fabulous in the Rose Garden; the Westbrook Arbour red carpet roses representing the three thriving examples of these, cheerfully welcomed

the first of our Camellias.

During the last two days I have returned to making good progress with “The Heart of The Family” by Elizabeth Goodge.

This evening we enjoyed further helpings of Jackie’s flavoursome, aromatic, and colourful chicken jalfrezi and savoury rice meal, with which I drank vino Argentino Bebida Nacional Mendoza Malbec 2022.

  1. Your roses are exquisite 🙂 The first Camellias are also appearing in our garden, but the leaves are not as healthy as yours. Your glass of Malbec suggests that you’re feeling better. That’s great!

    1. Mostly they stay outside unless they have been broken off – then they go in the accident pot 🙂 Thanks very much, Alys

  2. It was a good day to hunker down with a good book here, too. Ccccold, snowy, miserable out there. But pretty from inside looking out! Enjoy your read, Derrick. Your flowers are gorgeous!
