Lilac



Hello to all my crafty friends,we have a lovely day here and I spent a very short time in the garden this morning I would have liked to stay out longer but have still not fully recovered from my last infection.
I wanted to go out to move a holly which self seeded under another plant it is now about 30 inches high and I felt it had to be moved.

Many thanks to all those who continue to visit and leave comments they are very much appreciated.
