The garden’s looking startling

It never ceases to amaze me that things actually grow in my garden.

I certainly don’t have a green thumb. In fact, I even managed to kill a fake pot plant (left it in the sun too long, the glue dried out and the leaves all fell off).

However, rhododendrons, azaleas and roses seem to be immune to my plant killing abilities. Which is fortunate, because we have a lot of them in our garden. Strangely, the more stuff we pull out of the garden, the more plants we find. The white one in the photos is a new addition: it has suddenly just popped up over the past few weeks and the flowers suddenly appeared today.
