Had a quick look around the garden, still one or two things flowering but mostly just soggy greenery at the moment. Pink & white 'bee's favourite roses still going & they also have lots of red hips on for the birds. Still the odd flower on the buddleias Potted calendulas still going. Cyclamen in pot by the front door Slightly tatty fuchsia 'Dollar Princess' still flowering Seedheads left for the birds Sweet Williams Viburnum bodnantense 'Dawn' Hanging basket on the arbour Mahonia at the end of the garden Hanging basket at side of house

Your balcony looks clean and tidy balc2 and the flowers are very pretty, I hope the other pansies will flower soon but maybe with this cold weather they will do it later. However, it must be a joy for passers-by to see If I lived near you I'd be taking a walk past your flat often just to see your balcony

Before the cold frosty snowy snap I took the camera around the garden. The only really pretty thing was my yellow tree peony. I love the contrasting pink stems to the yellowy green leaves and the black seeds. then of course the temps dropped and with it came freezing fog. The bonus to that is you gat amazing hoar frosts. Holly followed by Ivy Two ferns, one is Woodwardia and the other I cannot remember and it is too cold to nip out and check. The cosmos that was still in flower is now very sorry for itself. Once there is a thaw it will be going in the compost bin.

The only foliage on the balcony is dead leaves & plants after the terrible frosts of the last week! It would be depressing to upload any photos but I have taken one of two of most of the plants.
