Flower cheer



I'm rather a snob about plastic hanging baskets but when I saw a selection containing violas on special offer at the garden centre a few weeks ago, I couldn't resist. The violas have survived heavy rain, strong winds and dark days and are still smiling at me for less than the price of a bunch of flowers. Value!
