Lily of the Valley and currant berry *ahem* *tires not to look suspicious*<br />My how they have grown! Fluffy fellows! Too cute.<br />Glad to see that the apple trees have blossomed - after all that kerfuffle with the metal poles, least the hard work wasn't in vain. So exciting to be discovering what's in the garden throughout the year - I bet you'll still be finding new things coming up till last in the year!<br /><br />Thank you for joining in again xMammasaurushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06364799068914984033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4460332327787059029.post-72145045333492482692015-04-29T01:02:43.061-07:002015-04-29T01:02:43.061-07:00Thank you.

Anyway, I like the association with labour day in France. My birthday is in May and they are often referred to as my birth flower.

The pink flower is quite pretty but the bush is a bit lanky and leggy with not much going for it.Mrs Foxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03964628527899832494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4460332327787059029.post-54629275375169591252015-04-28T03:20:24.085-07:002015-04-28T03:20:24.085-07:00I think mystery plant 2 is a currant berry, I'...I think mystery plant 2 is a currant berry, I've got one and it brings some early pink colour to the garden but not much else. Agree with lily of the valley too, they usually flower early May. Yes to the snakehead frittillary and the green euphorbium too (and quite possibly the red one!). I tend to grow my tomatoes in pots (if they're not in the greenhouse) as that means I can move them into and out of the sun as I need to, good luck with yours - and here's to many more discoveries :) #hdyggStephanie 139ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15272197074159910894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4460332327787059029.post-36308184913969224182015-04-28T01:08:12.367-07:002015-04-28T01:08:12.367-07:00Hi, your mystery plant number one is Lily of the V...Hi, your mystery plant number one is Lily of the Valley. Here in France 1st May, labour Day is known as the Fete du Muguet and it is traditional to greet friends with a bunch of Lily of the Valley, considered a lucky charm, dating back to when King Charles IX was presented with a bunch of them in 1561 and he liked them so much the tradition remainedAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
