Freesias

I have been nurturing a pot of freesia bulbs for two years. This is the first year they have flowered. I have them close to my bedroom door and every time I open it I’m greeted with a waft of their beautiful scent.

The day have been a mixture of intensive gardening (mostly line-trimming), a long fast walk in the rain, and worrying about my siblings in the UK.

One sibling is dangerously ill in hospital (not Covid). One is being an arse telling everybody (including medics) how to do their jobs. The third is peace-keeping and trying to keep the show on the road.

Families…
