Lilac starting to flower in the garden. Always grateful to the people before me who had the foresight to plant trees. Lilac trees are pretty boring to look at except when they have this moment of glory and scent. #lilac #mygardenthismonth #lotetgaronne

All along the lane the hedgerows are in blossom. #blossom #Spring #mydailywalk #tombeboeuf #lotetgaronne

On the short daily walk nothing gets overlooked! #mydailywalk #lotetgaronne

In the evening light, in the largest of our verandas, which we use more in summer months as the rain blows in during winter storms. Also the ceiling is very high so it’s cooler when the temperatures get high. #mygardenthismonth #eveninglight #colombage #veranda #verandalife

Spring blossom #mygardenthismonth #cherryblossom #Spring

Even on the 1km walk from my house there are always interesting views, in the distance is the 13th century bastide village of Monclar, on one of the Camino routes to Compostella. I love the Spring lime greens in the fields and trees. #frenchcountryside #monclar #lotetgaronne #mydailywalk #tombeboeuf #igersagen

Love the foamy flowers of Tiarella, which are doing well in the shade of the veranda. In the background, a recent project, steps leading up the bank to a bench overlooking the countryside and garden. I have at least 5 benches placed around the garden, for different times of the day. #tiarella #gardenpots #veranda #mygardenthismonth

#tbt A year ago in Johannesburg, a walk along a charming pergola in a welcome shower of rain. I’m a great fan of focal points drawing you on through the garden like this lion statue here. #gardens #johannesburg #pergola #topiary #focalpoint #gardendesign

Raindrops on irises. We have had a very dry Spring so far and so are glad for the slightest drop of rain! #iris #mygardenthismonth

Morning light in the colombage veranda by the drive. #lotetgaronne #tombeboeuf #veranda #verandalife #igersagen #mygardenthismonth

Spring in my village. Lockdown here in France has been extended for 2 more weeks. Luckily the weather has been beautiful so the 1km permitted walk per day has been a delight. Best wishes for continued health to you all. #tombeboeuf #springblossom #aquitaine #lotetgaronne #igersagen

Sunset through the apple blossom. #stayinghome #tombeboeuf #lotetgaronne
