Such breathtaking poetry you

Such breathtaking poetry you've written here Rhiannon. It must be so unusual to see monkey puzzle trees in such an amazing landscape, I've only ever seen them in gardens. You've done the photos proud.

Great story for the I P Jane.

Posted on Mon, 20 May 2024

Great story for the I P Jane. I love Blodwyn's poem, it evoked folklore and timely care the skilled gardener puts forward to growing a submission in a competition.

Very well thought out and a pleasure to read.

Jenny.
