Mothers Day Treat

Mothers Day Treat

The day for spoiling Mothers has come around yet again (although really we should be telling them we love them everyday of the year!) This year we decided to visit a beautiful garden centre to have a good look around and to treat the Mother to a cream tea in the cafe! As you can guess it was extremely busy, what with it being Mothers day and officially being Spring, the perfect time for gardening.

We had the most delicous cream tea (and the first one of the year!) before doing some shopping in the sunshine. I managed to pick up some Chamomile Lawn and two pretty Saxifraga alpines to plant amongst my stepping stone pathway up my allotment. I also finally found a packet of Borlotto seeds which will be growing over my willow archway and I got my Mum to pick out her favourite sweet pea seeds so they can join the borlotto beans on the archway. My Mum choose ‘Sweet Chariot’ which she told me also used to be my Grandads favourite flower, making them even more special to my heart. After our little trip out we stopped by the allotments on the way home so I could cover my swiss chard up and give my Mum a tour of my plot. All in all a good day, I hope all the other Mummys had a lovely day too!
