You’re playing catch up in your neck of the woods with your later Spring. It will be interesting to see just how quickly everything will burst forth there.
Oh me too, in fact of every where and every thing even doors and windows!
I can almost smell that apple blossom – one of the best scents in the world. It takes me back to sitting on the swing (one my dad made from a plank of wood, hanging in an apple tree) in the garden when I was little. Lovely! Tulips have such intense colours, don’t they?
What a pretty place for your swing. Yes, tulips are among my favourite flowers. Maybe just surpassed by lupins. I’m completely nuts about those. Yet, having said all that, I dislike cut flowers. Once they’re cut they’re dying and I’d much rather let them have their time in a flower bed.
Ooooh! Lupins. Mmmm. They didn’t grow very well on our soil (chalk) but at school there were wonderful lupins, all different colours, just outside one of the classroom windows. I really liked some brown and yellow ones I saw once – stunning. There were bearded irises there, too, with a wonderful scent. Scents are very good for memories!
Stunning. I love the way you have photographed the tulips…really different. Xx
Oh, I really just wanted to get a peek inside each one!
I love that reply! Perfect. xx
Lovely spring pic, thank you 🙂
Bet there’s just as much beauty in glorious Guildford, Jenny!
Thanks for a lovely re-visit to the Botanic Gardens. Happy Easter!
Just catching up with my blog so hope your Easter was lovely too. The weather made a difference for all of us, that’s for sure.

love the botanic gardens! And what a lovely day you had for your visit!
Gotta make the most of this wonderful Spring, haven’t we?
No words needed, beautiful.
I am really glad of my camera as it really has made me pay much better attention to the beauty of gardens.
