The last few days have welcomed the
opening of the first of the irises
in our garden.
It was a lovely day to set up a little table
for tea.
The irises have been starting to
open and I remember how quickly
this takes place and then that
is over which always is a bit sad.
I have quite a few columbines blooming
too and I do love the little "hanging
bell" shaped ones.
Gone are the daffodils, jonquils and
tulips (except for a few).
I made a pie yesterday but it has since
been consumed by family. Here
is the recipe!
The lovely rose tea service certainly was set off by the embroidered table cloth. Your columbines are so pretty. We had frost this morn.
ReplyDeleteOh that looks so very inviting and lovely! You have such a beautiful garden...the perfect place for tea parties. Everything is just perfect. I love irises but they don't grow here in Florida, so I can only enjoy them from a distance! That pie certainly looks wonderful!! I can imagine it didn't last long! Glad you took a picture! Thank you for sharing this delightful tea time in the garden with us. I feel refreshed just looking at it. It's already getting too hot here in our part of the country to enjoy tea time in the garden, that is if I had a pretty garden to enjoy it in! LOL. Thank you again. So lovely.
ReplyDeleteYour garden is so beautiful. I love bearded iris and columbine. What a lovely spot for tea!
