I showed you a picture of this little flower the other day. Some would call it a weed, some a wildflower. I was quite taken with it, but had no idea what its name was. Yesterday, I was watching one of the BBC programs from the Chelsea Flower Show and it was shown in a segment about wildflowers. It’s called Ragged Robin. Thank you, BBC!
By the way, reader Lesley tells me the BBC broadcasts 3 times a day from the Chelsea Flower Show.
I’m so jealous!
I went on a mowing tear yesterday and got it all done. Today is for running a couple of errands and weeding.
The first poppy opened yesterday morning. Here it is with part of the covering still attached.
Later in the day when the sun was very hot.
Another cameo appearance by a flying bug in this photo of a peony bud.
This morning, when I came downstairs about 6:30 am, I looked out the kitchen window to see Henry and a bunny within 3 feet of each other. That made me smile.
Nothing else to report. I’ve been working and mowing and yanking weeds and making lists before I take off for NYC tomorrow morning. I’ll be back on Sunday afternoon.
I’m so looking forward to the weekend but I get sad about leaving my garden because this is my happy place. I don’t want to miss anything!
But my sister and husband await.
Happy Wednesday.
