Thank you @joanboston, @kathy, @latebloomer, and @justin. My Mum is 92 and going blind. She can't get outside to see her garden, so I take photos of the plants and flowers for her iPad. She zooms in and holds her magnifier over the screen and gets to enjoy her garden. I also pick plenty of flowers for her from my garden - most recently a massive bunch of Jersey Lilies - with their lovely scent for her to enjoy. :-) I'm going to set her up an account on Garden Tags next time I visit. :-)

It's good that she has you to help her with the technology. My mam could never have managed it! Lots to see on here

😊 I do the same for my Gran - she's 94 now and has a tiny garden space. I try to get there to help my mum maintain it when I can as she lives about an hour away. But she's always pleased to see pictures of my garden. I made her a homemade calendar this year for Christmas present so she can look at all my photos throughout the year. She's not good with tech and this was the only way I could show her my garden.
