This bowl of pansies sitting in the front garden may look a bit weatherbeaten and past its best but it was given to me by a friend for my birthday back in August last year. Since then, it has been left to fend for itself and so it has. These flowers have survived an exceptionally cold winter, they have spent weeks covered in snow and frost but they still came up smiling.
It just goes to show, my version of 'tough love' gardening (ie stick the stuff out there and let it get on with it) pays off - sometimes, anyway.

How lovely for a springlike morning!
Lifts the heart, doesn't it?
Does Keith adore pansies? I have heard that most Welshmen do.
You'd have to ask him that, YP but you may need to wear your hard hat when doing so. ;)
