Twiggy's peony. A peony appeared in the garden at Watergate. I hadn't planted it so it must've grown in from before we replanted. I didn't much like it as it wasn't the cottage garden vibe, but the blooms were so beautiful I didn't have the heart to remove it. When Twiggy died I used to put the blooms on her grave by the pond. When we moved to Killernie I again removed all the plants in the bed (overgrown Hebes, though I never saw this, it didn't bloom) but this peony, the exact same colour, survived the cull and grew through a few years ago... Twiggy never wanted to leave Watergate, she died the day we agreed to move, but she made sure there was a little piece of her here.

Sally is completely deaf now, but still purrs constantly. Turn the sound on for a Sally purr...

Glad I weeded the bed for her.

Ella's contribution to the weeding is pecking my backside.

Sally has such a serious little face. Think there is a stirring in her waters as Gary is due home after nearly 3 weeks away. Sick of Mummy.
