Little garden snippets...

1. I'd forgotten that I had planted some Sparaxis bulbs in this hanging basket. Glad that I did now.

2. Blooming when I got back from Wales, the strangest freaky foxglove flower I have ever see. I wonder if I could cultivate it.

3. In one of my flower pots. Are they minions?

    Looks like Araneus diadematus babies...just a harmless European garden spider. Maybe if you start training them now, they can grow up to be your minions smile emoticon

    Exactly Buffey. Pretty little non venomous things.
