Winter Warmer

Some of the magnificent photographs from our Members.

These are photographs from 2020 that have given our members a lift, made them smile, or just allowed them and us to remember some of 2020 with joy

David & Lynn M

Their lovely cat Ginny sunning herself on the shed roof and keeping an eye on the comings and goings in the garden. A spectacular planter with fuchsias (note the Pyracantha in berry at the same time). A reminder of the heat of the summer, and the thankful recovery of a Ceanothus that was blown over in the February gales.

Val C

It's been such a bumper year for fruits and berries, and here, Rose Hips in abundance

Maverick Violet - still going strong in December

A picture of Val's brother's garden as intended with laden trees and the copper-colours of Autumn...

And the way it was actually taken !

Peggy J

More fruit, this time from an unsual Strawberry Tree (Arbutus unedo). The new flowers, loved by bumble bees are being pollinated as the old fruit ripens. The fruit is edible, but Peggy says she has yet to do a taste test!

Barbara B

An expectant visitor from back in the Spring

Derek D

Chris S

A reminder of 'Pinocchio'
