It’s the end of February, and the end of an era for my family.  This year has had such a sad beginning,  with the passing of a friend, then my dear mum,  followed by my mum’s remaining sister.  Mum loved her garden and pond and also many houseplants.  I have taken a few of her houseplants to care for them as I think it is a lovely way to remember people by.  As you tend their plants you can reminisce about happier times and even talk to the plants as though you were talking to the person themselves.   Here are some pictures of my mum’s garden.
