Candytuft.

These small rockery plants are just beginning to unfurl & flower in the stone trough by the back door.
A bright & sunny but cold day & I needed gloves for my poor hands that go numb at the slightest bit of cold !

Very pretty!! Such details and delicate colours.

The sky and light looks gorge with these pretty little flowers. We've had everything today - I set out in lovely sunshine and was being hailed on before I knew it. Then we've had sun, rain, cold wind and more hail. I seem to have taken all of my photos in the dull patches unfortunately so it's lovely to see your sunny shot!

What a good girl, I haven't ventured out at all!! Super little photo!

Oh, this is simply marvelous, Pat! Exceptional dof and color! Hope your springtime starts to warm up a bit...it sounds unseasonably chilly in your part of the world.

@redrucksack @judithg @fannyb @peggysirk Thank you all for your lovely comments !!! I didn't have to venture far out of the back door to take this but did take quite a few around the garden but thought this was the best .

All the great weather is going to bring them out nicely

Nice capture!

How beautiful they are, Pat ... such a cheerful color. Can't imagine the cool weather, but we are still getting days like that also. Love your pov here and the dof!

Really pretty! Aww, poor hands - and it looks like such a warm day!

great shot, very very nice

wonderful detail here Pat, and lovely colours too. It was very cold today I agree...I got warm lugging the mower about but my hands were raw at the end...even though I had gardening gloves on. Hope the April showers go soon (and take their hail with them!) and we get some May sunshine!

Oh it's gorgeous pat - love the pinks and greens - very soft and pretty.

Is it 'thrift' Pat? lovely angle on the shot, you were brave, it's been very cold here (i'm a bit of a fair weather gardener)
April 15th, 2012  
looks like a promise of brilliant colour!

@lesleyallen I think it is Lesley, is Thrift the same as Candytuft, not sure ...a sort of rockery plant that comes up every year. Not very good at flower names !!

Wonderfully captured-- gloves and all!
April 16th, 2012  
I hope we are going to get a full flower shot too.
