Friday Flowers on a Saturday


I couldn't get pesky blogger to upload photos yesterday so here are my flowers for Friday on Saturday! These are my pansies from the front garden. I've always loved pansies - they're like happy little faces.





The one above is massive - as big as my palm!





The ones above are cute as they've got sweet little whiskers.


A lovely miniature yellow rose has snuck into the picy above.



I did sneak off to the hardware stores today to check out plants and came home with a few herbs, a pretty clematis and a new blue pansy!
We got a load of mulch so I have been a busy bee weeding and mulching the whole yard. Photos to come. Hope you are all having a nice weekend too xx

  1. Beautiful flowers! Pansies have so much character I think... all the different colour combinations are so pretty. I love that plain, bright yellow, and the dark purple is amazing... they look like they really love being in your garden!

  4. I love pansies too. Maybe because they are the first to be sold in the spring when I am so desperate for color, or maybe because they are so simple and beautiful.
    Can't believe the size of that one in your hand-huge!
    The picture of the yellow pansies is so pretty.

    We have a beautiful start to the fall weekend here in Boston. Hope you enjoy your spring weekend.

  9. I LOVE pansies and violas, they are so pretty and forgiving too;) I have some in a large urn in our front yard and they always make me smile. Yours are beautiful, Sarah:) ~ Tina xx

  10. Pansies and violas are some of my favourite flowers too - such happy sunny blooms. I used to love pressing these flowers as a little girl and making cards with them. I love that deep purple almost black flower. We had a big spend up at the nursery on the weekend too buying some flowers and vegetables to plant in our new patch.

  11. I love those pale white/creamy ones, they are so pretty Sarah! By the way I am very impressed with your cafe deduction skills, it was citrus moon, i hadn't been there before, it was nice. I hope you had a lovely weekend.

  13. I so love pansies too, but I didn´t sow them this year... and yes, my roses are all growing well, except from some new ones I have planted and all of them, 5, died.. I´ve tried a new nursery and think they were not good ones... I cried but it´s over now.
    I hope we will share our blooms soon, mine will be ready, as most of the years, oct. 31st.
