A bit more of the "tamed down garden" as you can see the loch ness monster who is not called "Elaine" ;) is a recent addition. But Oscars tree has white blossom on it. And Cleo's holly has took right off to the left of it.

My Acer is just starting to leaf again Kazz ...... I didn't put a fleece jacket on it this past winter so its waking up has been slow this year.:)

It's good to see 'Eric' and 'Ernie' still flourishing :)
