Flower garden

It was a bit drizzly today, but it didn’t stop us heading to Buxieres-Sue-Arce for a little plant sale. There was a lot of people all nattering at the entrance, but I managed to wiggle my way into the barn where the plants had all been carefully laid out. A lady came and chatted to me and helped me out on what was good for shade and which were good for sun. I had no idea how much my little haul was going to be, but Brian suggested he’d wait outside whilst I went to pay.

I found another lady who looked like she was helping out and asked if I could pay ‘gratuit’ she exclaimed. ‘Gratuit’ I exclaimed back!

I was really happy with my selection, which I will get planted tomorrow. I just couldn’t believe they were giving them all away. What a fantastic way of sharing plants and helping everyone to have flowers in their gardens.
