2016. Hope

Sunday challenge SC179 post 11 January 2026

My hopes for this year are that I can still keep walking (my knees are giving up) and appreciating Nature in all its forms; and also that I can continue to love my garden, which always gives me joy and anticipation for the future.

The snowdrops and winter flowering cyclamen were covered in snow on the 10th and visible after a thaw on the 11th January.

A lovely floral montage, Amelia. I love the wintry feel you have captured in the top photograph. The flowers in the bottom photograph leave me yearning for the advent of spring. I hope you are having an excellent Sunday. Kindest regards, Joe

Lovely images Amelia we are approaching one of the most exciting times in the garden almost every day reveals something new, I don't have much luck with Winter/ Spring flowing cyclamen Autumn ones are everywhere now although it took me years to get them established
