Like so many city dwellers I don’t own a garden, only windowsills and a bit of pavement. While that does bring the advantage of not having to cut grass or weed it also means fewer flowers and no trees.
Since the weather has been so lovely I abandoned my cleaning (yes, half way through dusting the lure of the sun was too strong to withstand) and took a trip down to a garden center with one of my neighbours. We had some lunch and emptied out our pennies and stocked up on a few plants.
Back on the street we weren’t the only ones enjoying the outdoors and soon the neighborhood felt like a Italian piazza – everyone was sitting out enjoying the sun, chatting to each other and enjoying food and drink on their doorsteps.
Now all I can hope is that the sun stays around for a while allowing me to enjoy my blue bench and my very own urban gardening.

Promise to do the watering and maybe bring along some phone photos of my plants, trees & vines! No lawn, just pea-rock! Please don’t lose the sunshine!
Great … And I hope you get the sun to enjoy sitting out on my blue bench
