Hi everyone! I have been very quiet this week in blogland as life took to the fast lane here on the tip of Africa, and so my favourite blogs reads and my own posts suffered. So, to remedy the situation, I thought that I would just share a few fab things that have been sitting in my "to share" file for a while now... Lets start with mother nature... ...and let us run down this path caressing the grass as we go...I feel like lieing on the grass and treating my senses to the smell, texture and greenery! It reminds me of the quote, " Keep a green bough in your heart, and the singing bird will come" My French Country Garden Love love the panelling, the painting, the colours, the candlesticks....hmmm.... just gorgeous. I wonder what's for lunch? Perhaps a pheasant pie ... Belgium Pearls Feel like an opera or a ballet? I would love to see one here in the Monte Carlo Opera House. The coquettish Carmen, maybe... Why on earth did I not visit this place when I was there???!! Right, jaw up! Applause please as I take a deep and reverent bow ... One Degree of Separation How I wish I was sitting here typing this post..sigh... Love the warm glow, the chandelier, the atmosphere....the whole lot is just so me ... more gorgeous candle sticks. La Pouyette Loved this room , although I am not an all white decor person, I am just captivated by this room. Must be the wrought iron gates that did it! Providence Ltd Can I be selfish and claim this space all for me, myself and I...so we can relax to the max.... I would love to read this book in the above setting...but on second thoughts, maybe this is not the best idea that I have ever had....reading all about pastries whilst in my bather... Total bliss space...well minus that hideous television thingy...sorry, I believe there is a place for everything and the bathroom is not for it! Replacing it with a gorgeous painting...Amazing space. Providence Ltd I had this image of just the door on my Pinterest board and now found the rest of it and it looks great seeing the whole picture. Delightful detail. Great colour combo. I am really enjoying this piece of art. My kind of happy place... Art Cafe And now, I bid you farewell with a wave from this splendid balcony.

One of the perennial gardening problems is finding plants that will thrive in shady spots next to fences or underneath established trees. Even more difficult is to find ones that also flower well in these conditions.

Providing winter interest and fragrance, Edgeworthia chrysantha (Paperbush) is a bushy, suckering, deciduous shrub, prized for its luminous, rounded inflorescences, 2 in. across (5 cm), packed with fragrant, silky white and yellow flowers (up to 40 per flower head). Blooming on naked stems over long periods, at least 4-6 weeks in late winter and early spring, they open from silvery flower buds that begin to form in late summer and are ornamentally attractive in fall and winter. In the summer, the plant is covered in beautiful, narrowly oval, dark blue-green leaves, 6 in. long (15 cm), with silvery undertones. In fall, the leaves drop to reveal a wonderfully structured plant that develops sweet-smelling winter flowers. Superb in shape and form, Paperbush is a wonderful plant to combine with shade-tolerant evergreens and wildflowers. It is widely grown in Japan to make paper, hence the common name.
