Hi everyone, it's time for a bit of a catch up...
First my balcony, these photos were taken on Saturday.
I bought these flowers four weeks ago.....
These were also on sale after Christmas - I have had to tie them up
I think you will agree that my balcony has been the ideal climate this year.
During this last week hubby had a few trips to hospital but we did manage to take a walk knowing that we wouldn't be going far for a while.
We took packed lunch which we ate before setting off around the Winter Garden at Dunham Massey.
We came home refreshed and ready for a warm drink - those blue skies are deceptive
This has been one of our favourite drinks over the Winter - Spiced Berry cordial and off course I am joining Bleubeard and Elizabeth at The Altered Book Lover for Tea Stands For Tuesday.
Thanks for looking, Chris

Your flowers are all holding up so well! That looks like such a lovely place for a walk. Signs of Spring :) Happy T Tuesday!
Wow, you must have the perfect climate for all those plants and flowers, they all look so pretty 😁. Such lovely photos too, spring must be on its way! That spiced berry cordial sounds just the thing for the cold and stormy weather we've been having - yum! Happy T Day! Hugs Jo x
Flowers are filling your life Chris. How exciting. I can't get over how the plants on your windowsill are blooming. You have a garden right in your home. And all the spring bulbs popping up at the gardens are amazing. Thanks for sharing these beauties. and I hope it was a happy T day too. Hugs-Erika
Your flowers apparently love their home with you-they look beautiful!! Thank you for the breath of spring seeing the blooms, walkways, and water along the lovely Winter garden.
I hope everything is well with hubby after his hospital visits. take care, and happy T day!
wow Chris I am in awe of those lovely spring blooms-too cold here for that yet. and I love your flowers on our balcony-how do you keep the ones in water lasting so long-they look so fresh.
I really enjoyed your post today-full of flowers Happy T hugs kathy
Wow those flowers are amazing. The photos are pretty amazing too. Some great shots.
Wow those flowers are long lasting and your plants are beautiful. I can't believe how far ahead in seasons you are from New England. We're still buried under snow and you have fields of flowers. All those snowdrops. Happy T Day
Can't believe how long your flowers have lasted. You must have a magic green thumb for sure! Charming photos of all the flowers outside. Thanks for sharing. Happy T Day!
You are a master gardener, Chris. You must change the water in those flowers daily, because they seem to love their home. And your cactus and kalanchoe are great, too.
What beautiful flowers on your walk. While you are looking at snow drops, crocus, and daffs, we are preparing for up to 7 inches of snow tomorrow night.
Your spiced berry cordials look warm and inviting. Thanks for sharing your flowers, plants, walk around Dunham Massey, and your cordials with us for T this Tuesday, dear friend.
I hope the hubby is okay. You certainly went to a beautiful place!
Hope you have a good week. :)
You are so good with plants and flowers - definately a talent and one I do not possess. Lovely picutures, Chris, and the drink looks and sounds wonderful!!!! Hugz and happy T-day a bit late.
Fabulous post, have a great day, stay safe, hugs, Valerie
Wow, your plants have a perfect homestead, I'd say. Now I'm worried about your hubby and hope he is doing better. Lovely scenery for your walk, xoxo
What do you feed your flowers and plants on - what a fabulous array. Certainly got some magic in your fingers there.
Sorry to hear hubby is having to go back to hospital - hope things go well for him.
Gorgeous photos.
Hugs, Neet xx
The flowers look lovely! And have lasted a very long time! Well worth having! I love to see those other pictures in the summer, what a difference they'll be! Happy Very late T for Tuedsay! But I was last!
