I didn’t expect this to flower this year, I’ve a small bed by the drive with horsetail weed that I’ve dug out the plants, potted them up to isolate any rogue weeds, and grass seeded the bed into the lawn!! I give up!!! So I’m glad that some of the plants have survived 💕 #pink

I spotted this on my twin girls birthday in the week- I thought how appropriate 💕💕 it appeared as if from nowhere and is a mass of flowers, have a super Saturday everyone especially those off to the Harrogate Show, we are going to the Toby Buckland Festival in Exeter 😊😊😊

A solitary #bleeding-heart - can't believe how fast these grow! Especially after the wind 💨 hail and rain in the night!

They seem to just keep coming back from nothing every season, they must love neglect @rachelbrooks 😏

They certainly do! 👍🏼 I've had the pink one for ages but bought a white one from the poorly table at the GC last year. Paul thought I'd lost the plot as it did look dead, but I told him it'd come back...and it has! Just love them 💕
