Painting white… painting green… it’s all about the trees.
May blossom has fallen and the cow parsley is fading to green but there are signs of delicate elderflowers appearing … the hedgerows and our garden have been overflowing with whiteness since the blackthorn appeared in early spring.
It is calming and restful.
How to paint white? Is it a natural pure colour or tinged with gentle shades of green, browns and subtle pinks.
It is tempting to add colour – but which colour?
Our daisy lawns are beautiful and when the sun shines on the buttercups the colours of nature compliment the gentle pinks and purples of the flower borders.
Spring is over too quickly – Maytime and cuckoos, bluebells and song birds, waking early to hear the dawn chorus.
June will soon be “busting out all over”.
