Weathered lavender , Astilbe, daffodils and Osterley.

“Cast all your anxiety on Him because He cares for you.”

1Peter 5:7
Weathered lavender with more complete Japanese Astilbe.
Fine and rough.
Brought in from the garden today.
Together in a worn brass vase.

” Every trial endured and weathered in the right spirit makes a soul nobler and stronger than it was before.”

James Buckham Kennedy

“All Nature seems at work. Slugs leave their lair. The bees are stirring, birds are on the wing, and Winter slumbering in the open air, Wears on his smiling face a dream of spring. “

Samuel Taylor Coledridge

Then looking at a vast garden as it was today. Osterley Park carefully tended by volunteers.

One view near the lake at Osterley Park

It fascinates me to see how the moody light can present a scene through the lense. The darkness yet brightness of the yellow. Then from another way of ‘seeing’ the well prepared beds in shade look warmer with sun touching the summer house. It is the same day with pictures taken within an hour.

There is restoration going on in the house so the main rooms are closed. It’s the gardens that are a joy moving into spring.

The house.

A little experience that happened in our garden and then time in a vast garden. Thank you for looking at our post.

Sandy 🙂
