The Forgotten Garden

Today I finished reading this book, The Forgotten Garden a novel by Kate Morton.  It is a great book. 

It takes place in Australia and England and has 552 pages.  I read this book in 2 weeks!!  I don't think I have ever read a book with that many pages that fast.  Being snowed in helped, plus the book was due back at the library and there are 4 people waiting to check it out....See I told you it is a good book. 

As for my garden I found these blooming in the greenhouse this week.

The Bird of Paradise is blooming again.  It enjoys the warmth and humidity in the greenhouse. 

Behind the birds is a new antique mirror that I purchased last month.  It has carved Scottish Thistles all around the edges and there are doors in the center that open to the mirror.

Thank you for taking the time to read my blog.
Until next time,
