I think I grew this... by judithg

I think I grew this...

...from seed last year. Anyway - nothing much happened with it last year but it survived the winter, general neglect and lack of water and is providing a bit of welcome colour. I feel after yesterday's bright green that I'm doing one of those colour things that @boxplayer does so well. Lots of roses and other things are just waiting to burst forth - a little bit of warmth is required. We have clouds that feel like they're about 10 feet off the ground at the moment and waiting to rain on us.
In exciting news today the Beckhams were in Cambridge and were getting on/off punts at the landing stage on Jesus Green while we were throwing balls to the dog at self same place...but we didn't know.
My sister (more importantly) and her friend are in town taking in the shops and sights...and I do know about them.
When Adam went to the Central St Martin's open day he went on to Shoreditch afterwards for lunch (I wrote about it I think) and a Japanese fashion magazine took his picture in the street. They e-mailed him today to show that they had featured him in the magazine. The English part points out that he's wearing: Rain coat, black denim jeans and sneakers which doesn't seem very technical. I'm getting my Japanese friend to translate the rest and won't tell him if he's in the 'fashion fail' section!
A nice vibrant shot for a dull day. Fancy Adam being featured in a Japanese magazine!

Stunning photo. Magnificent color! You grew this well, Judith!
Fun happenings in Cambridge. Especially like the fact that Adam was featured in a Japanese fashion magazine in his raincoat, jeans and sneakers.

Very interesting running commentary Judith....I must confess I like the writing as much as the photos on 365!
Fabulous edgy petals......Adam the Japanese star!

They must have asked Adam if they could take his photo! Lovely deep colours and lacy edges to this flower!

It brightens up a dull and chilly day. I wonder if Adam was pleased to be featured in a Japanese magazine?

I agree about the writing and photos! Lovely luminous colour. Could this be the start of a modelling career for Adam?!

I love the color and the detail of the petals.

Beautiful colors.

Wonderful vibrant colours. They probably think that the raincoat is a quintessential English garment.

Superb, I love the focus on the curly petals. They almost look outlined. Wonderful botanical shot and a fav
