One month on

My first Trumpet Gentian flower opened on April 7th .... this is the last one, a month to the day after the first.  There were other blip options but as I pine for the far off mountains, this lone flower is still my winner today.

An hour outside after breakfast, levelling another path, was plenty in the heat.  I was dripping by the time I came in.  A little later we took Jamie with us to see Jacinta's Mum who is in hospital.  After some indoor jobs, it was cool enough later to be out again, potting up some newly acquired plants plus a trip to the allotment to water emerging peas and beans ... and hoped for carrots ... not yet emerging :-/
