Remembrance Day is always a day that is etched on my mental calendar even though this post is two days late. Both my father and mother served in the Army in WW2 and one way or another both suffered what we now call PTSD. Wether it was coincidence or destiny I don’t know but my Dad died on Remembrance 2008 and some of my last words with him related to his past, so its one day I will never forget…

Spring flowers in my garden – Renunculus take a bow!
Renunculus grow from bulbs one of my favourite genus, both as flowers and vegetables the main sorts being onions, garlic and leeks which my garden has a place for all the year round.
I have three Renunculi in my bulb bed all of which are red and have been growing for three seasons. Each year their colours seem to vary this year they seem to be lighter in colour, it would be interesting to learn if this is normal for the species?
