Loving My Flowers..

Ok, so I'm still getting to grips with this whole blogging malarkey and I don't even know if anybody is reading this so it could all be a hopeless waste of time; however I'm carrying on regardless. Feel free to comment if you do read, even if only to say hello.

I was in the garden the other day, and noticed a few of my flowers (lilies and cosmos sensation) were finally flowering. This has pleased me greatly as i started these particular ones as seeds/bulbs, thinking they'd probably not survive.. let alone flower.

Here they are:








I'm also pleased with my containers that I made up of bought plug plants.. they're probably quite mismatched and messy to the seasoned gardener, but I'm really happy all the same as they're still alive and look reasonably good I feel for a first real attempt.




I noticed my strawberry plants were looking rather sorry for themselves now they have stopped fruiting, so I'm thinking that I should feed them this year as I did not do so last year as I thought they had died; so I got a pleasant surprise when I saw they were growing again at the beginning of this Summer. I am thinking I should be using tomato feed for them, but I should probably go and look this up before taking any action to make sure.
