This is yesterdays flower bud with an ant on it. I couldn't believe it had opened so quickly in todays sun. I have had this plant about 5 years and it is not supposed to be hardy but despite frost and snow it still keeps coming to see me.
I wanted to get out in my back garden and set a few plants in a tub as it was a lot warmer and the sun was out.The problems I have with my knee makes it difficult to walk anywhere and I have two steps to get down but with the help of a Zimmer two walking sticks and my rollator I managed to get out set my plants and back in again after an enjoyable rest in the sun on my garden seat .
I had to smile because this morning I needed to put new sugar water in my hummingbird feeder. It's pretty easy to get it down, but once the water's in it, it's really hard to get it back up. I dragged out a step stool and a chair from our dining room table to accomplish that task, but I got it back up! I'm so glad you didn't let the logistics stop you! Keep it up Wendy- it may be a challenge but it makes you feel so much better when you accomplish something like that. And you got a really nice photo out of your efforts too. Pretty flower.
You are doing well. Proud of you ❤️
