Nature

I took this picture yesterday on our walk, nature seems confused by the warm weather. The Camelias round here don't usually flower until at least February!!

Wow the change of climate. I wonder if she'll bloom. It's a beautiful picture.

I will update you. We walk here several times a week. X

Our Magnolia is in bud, as is the tree peony, and to top it all, the Verbena is actually flowering!!! Totally ridiculous. Question is - what will they do next year???

I live in Cornwall, UK and we always have a couple of camellias out for Christmas in the garden. There is a white one, about 15 foot tall in full bloom now for two weeks. A pink one will follow soon. There is also an early purple and pink rhododendron starting to flower. A beautiful end to a horrible year for everyone.

How true ! I treated myself to a small white camellia recently and it cheers me up seeing the buds open. My trailing geraniums are still flowering.

Seeing some colourful life definitely improves my mood.
