Well, spring is here. Branches are heavy with flowers and new growth, the morning light wakes us earlier and earlier and we discover new delights in our garden. I bought this Jasminum Multipartitum (Wild Jasmine) plant at last year’s Botanic Soc sale. It struggled through last year barely pushing out any new growth and I was frankly a little bit disappointed. Yet again my garden teaches patience because this spring she has simply blossomed. All new green shoots and in a show of happiness she’s been flowering with delicate little star flowers that are so beautifully scented I would like to walk around with a few of them up my nose all day. That would be taking it a bit far I guess! But, what joy to get to know a plant in your garden, one that’s a little shy and has finally said “hey, I’d like to get to know you too”…
spring has most definitely sprung. I was working in the garden and could smell the jasmine wafting through the air. reminded me of ollie’s house in cape town.
