Week 25

This week for Helelna’s lovely meme my Snap! is Emerging

My garden is somewhat unkempt due to lack of energy on my part but through my camera lens I can concentrate on the plants that look good. After all, who wants to look at knee high weeds? Actually maybe that would make a good snap too…weeds for thought.
Yesterday morning I was struck by these buds.

Hydranger This was planted in the shade and is always behind but it means it is still in flower when everyone else’s is finished. Balance. Everything’s about balance isn’t it?

The Fairy I have never seen so many buds on this pretty pink rose.

Alchemilla Mollis I’m not that keen on the flowers on this but I photographed the raindrops on the leaves only a few days ago and now, flower buds!
Did you know… Alchemilla mollis takes its name from the Arabic, meaning little magical one, as in the middle ages the water collected from its leaves after a morning dew was said to have healing properties. (could have saved that for Sian on a Monday! if only I’d had my muse goggles on…)

This is Remember Me, the rose I planted for my late father whose birthday it was last week. When she blooms I’ll let you see her, she is very beautiful.

Thank you Helena.
