Friday flowers...hyacinths


I know, hold onto your seats people, two posts in one week!
This is for Liz, a good friend who regularly checks my blog out and noted to me that I hadn't posted much lately.
Seeing as this image is a beautiful flower, it's for you all really. Thanks for dropping by, even when I'm being a truly hopeless blogger!

It has been so cold and dreary here in Hobart this week. Today looks like being clear, so that's good. I bought this pot of purple hyacinths last Friday from a local supermarket. I just couldn't walk past them. That big stem on the right snapped off overnight.
Don't you think this pic has a bit of a Scandinavian feel? I overexposed the image to capture the light and make it all feel nice and fresh. The funny pink basket is a Japanese paper Airvase. I like them a lot but never know what to do with them!
Well, time to jump in the shower and go off to the salt mines. Have a great Friday and a fun weekend. I'm working, but thems the breaks.

Friday flowers... hyacinths


Happy Friday friends!
Who's looking forward to the weekend?
I am! Hopefully we can fit in some relaxing, a spot of gardening and an little outing.


This Friday I wanted to show you how my lovely blue hyacinths are growing.
A couple have just taken off and are well ahead than the others. They're so thick with flowers too! Not to mention the amazing fragrance!
I'm so pleased with them :)


Have a lovely weekend and I'll see you on Monday with my camera choosing dilemma post. Why am I so indecisive?!
