Mothers Day is coming

Just thinking about mothers day..... my mother, I don't think was a great gardener..... this is the only photo I can find of her doing anything remotely gardening and I imagine this holding of a mower was just a good photo opportunity... clearly by that lovely 50s frock she is wearing.  How things have changed..... I wonder how many women now garden. My mother looks at me in horror when I am muddy...

Looking at the David Austen rose catalogue. Must get to work .... next design, a small garden in Richmond.
