How lovely, the combination of pots and flowers and colours.
I do the same, gathering plants and bulbs
and pots from our Friday market in Totnes.
As always Your inspiration is of what is all around us
That all of us can see and find and explore.
Generous and democratic. Thank you

Appropriate for bulbs, perhaps.

But how is it that your cat doesn’t dig at them? I have never been able to keep any plants because of my cats. Sigh.

I can almost smell the fragrance of those hyacinths.
Visits to Columbia Road flower market were an integral part of my childhood on summer Sunday mornings, so glad it has survived given so many changes to the area.
My mum still lives nearby and watches all the folk going past her flat with armfuls of lovely flowers and plants.

Finding such beautiful colourful pots may be a more difficult challenge but I will enjoy searching. Happy new year to all.

Living by the sea we already have daffs in the village and camellias in the garden but is good to see them indoors to cheer the soul.

This post has really brightened my morning.
