Hello everyone,
I hope your week is going well and I am sure many of you are looking forward to a special weekend with Mother's Day coming up. The weather here has been warming up so the garden is coming along and everyday makes a little difference but it is not pretty enough yet overall to give you a garden tour.
So, today it is just a little lavender beauty.
This clematis was overwintered in the basement, so it has bloomed much earlier then if it was in the ground.
I love the soft lavender color.

Carolyn, Since any shade of purple is my favorite color, this post is a work of art for my heart. As always your photography is stunning. I love the single flower in the acqua vase and the flower on top of the exquisite servicing dish. Really words do not do your photos or your flowers justice. Blessing and Happy Mother's Day to you.
Dearest Carolyn,
That sure is a beautiful Clematis you are showing us here! Enjoy your first blooms and spring will soon set in for good.
Lots of love,
Mariette
Carolyn, the lavender clematis is gorgeous and so are your images. I wish I had luck growing clematis. I think they are such beautiful blooms.
Happy Mother's Day! ~ Sarah
Very nice colour and i love your garden house!
Dear Carolyn,
I see I have missed several of your lovely posts during my short stay in France.
Your garden cottage looks enchanting. It must be such a joy for one of your granddaughters to be sleeping in that cottage for a night! All those pinks and floral patterns. It's a girls dream!
I enjoy seeing the first pictures of your garden again! The lavender blue clematis looks beautiful.
Have a lovely weekend! I hope the weather will be good so that you can enjoy your garden.
Lieve groet, Madelief x
Carolyn, You have a way of taking a lovely flower and making it even lovelier within your surroundings. Most have flowers to add beauty to their environments but yours enhances the beauty of the blooms. Always a joy to visit. Happy Mother's Day!
Just the most amazing photos! The lighting is so perfect. And your china with it is the best touch.

It is a delicate sheen of soft colors on the petals a little wrinkled from your clematis! Your photos are absolutely wonderful! Good weekend!
Hello Carolyn,
This Clematis is spectacular - you've captured its beauty so well.
I am loving the different shades you see in it - it is so very feminine!
Hope you have a marvelous weekend and Mother's Day,

Hi Carolyn
You know I like this clematis, it's the perfect shade of lavender.
I must see about a tea for Saturday too, I forgot about Bernideen's tea in the garden.

Such lovely delicate shadings of color in those Clematis flowers! The petals have a beautiful translucent quality.
This is a nice website
