Sensitive, light touch. Lovely sketch Fiona. I hope ours survive the frosts in their pots outside.

A great sketch, Fiona.

Beautiful Fiona.

That’s brilliant Fiona, beautifully done! Yes I keep the agapanthus and the tall alliums, they look lovely in frost with cobwebs.

Christine, Petra, Romila, Spencer, Heather, Martin, Mia, Denise…..thank you so much. Michael, I have a white one in a pot, like you I hope it makes it to spring. The blue one is in the ground, it’s lucky, it has a good topping of beech leaves. Carole they do. I don’t do much cutting back in the autumn I like to see the frosted leaves and seed heads. Thank you both.

Sketchbook graphite and carbon pencils. Even without the dusting of snow Agapanthus seed heads are architectural I think, took a quick photo. It’s been tipping it down for the last couple of days, so the photo came in handy to keep me out of mischief.
