More flowers for Mother's Day

As usual the flowers ran out. The florists were phoning long after we'd sold our last flower. On the following Monday the phone started again. They were all bereft of blooms and desperate for flowers to start the week. Many florists have corporate clients that need flowers on the Monday to grace their offices.

As it turned out we had a good pick on the Monday - so all florists got a delivery and we had not shortages.

The plants are looking good and because the weather is more settled - warm sunny days and cool nights consistently, the flowers are doing very well. They love this sort of weather.

We have had a little rain, but not much. Not enough to break the drought. Enough to keep the grass green. Just.
