Last weekend was agony for the boys at the
Heartshaped house. The "local derby" Sheffield Wednesday Vs Sheffield United - and they had tickets. Their team (Sheffield Wednesday) are facing
relegation (this happens on a regular basis these days I'm afraid), and my cries of "Its only a game" don't seem to make things any better! Any way, whilst they went off to watch the game (which ended in a 1-1 draw, not the best result but it could have been worse!), I took myself off to the garden centre for a walk around the walled garden.
These filled the air with a fabulous scent.
I have some of these in my garden, but I don't know what they are called.
Its such a sheltered spot that the
Rhododendrons are out here now.
I was even brave enough to enter the bear pit on my own.
Its very dark in here. I did manage to scare another lady who had ventured in on her own.

Beautiful photos! x
I love reading your posts about Sheffield as that is where my son lives. He went there as a student and never came home. In August he is marrying a local girl he met at uni. They both work in schools there, Joe as a pastoral leader and Emma as 2nd in dept in English. I love them both so much so its great to read about and see photos of the area they live in.
Thanks

I have to ask! Which garden centre is this? If vit has a walled garden it sounds as though it would be worth a visit. Commiserations on the Sheff Wed situation, we are Blades in this house but I always like to see both Sheffield teams doing well unless they are playing each other when I'm very biased indeed:)
The bear pit sounds scary!
Gorgeous photos there! Loving the fact that you managed to scare someone in the bear pit :-)
Lovely shots and such pretty flowers. Like you I often see things that are in my garden but haven't a clue what they're called. Not that it matters if you like them!
BOO!!!!!

The purple flowers are anenomes I think-probably spelt wrong!
No spell check on the comment form!

Yes, what garden centre has a walled garden - sounds a wonderful place for advertising plants!
