I take this shot every year too.

Looking out of the front door onto the pots on the steps

I have put a different flower in the pots this year - Baby Blue Eyes, nemophila menzii, a wonderful colour but far too straggly in pots! That doesn't matter in the beds where they thread themselves through other plants rather charmingly (the slugs got those ones this year) so I think I will stick to the wonderful Mexican Daisy, erigeron karvinskianus as I have done is previous years...

My favourite blue. Peaceful and uplifting. Needed that this morning - thank you.

The Baby Blue Eyes blue is gorgeous, as is blue of the watering- can (is that the right word?- we call it 'gieter' which literally translated would be something like 'pourer' does make sense, don't you think?)
I can see why you prefer Mexican Daisy though. It reminds me (yes another memory) of a tiny flower I saw growing in a crack of rock in Wales once. It creates a very elegant view.

I love the seemingly infinite variety of flowers you display in and around your garden.

I think we sometimes take for granted the thousands of different plants we can grow in our temperate climate here in uk. I am glad you are enjoying them here.
