I shall be joining Cathy of ‘Words and Herbs’ in her aim to bring cheer to the dark days of December. Back in 2017 (can it really be five years ago?) I had an Alternative Advent Calendar on my flower blog showing the wonderful flowers that were in bloom along the George V Memorial Walk in Hayle during November. I haven’t been able to get to the garden this November so I am going to reuse those beautiful blooms which hopefully will bring some brightness into our lives.
Cornwall in Colours 
I don’t know this one, but it is so pretty. Does it have a scent?
Mmm… not sure if they are fragrant. I don’t grow them myself but might try next year if I remember to buy the bulbs!
Hesperantha is a lovely plant and I have two here. Unfortunately they come into flower very late and get caught by the frost. (I can’t help wondering if they flower so late because they’re waiting for a bit more moisture in the ground. Must try watering them more!)
It does like moist soil and is also known a River lily, which suggests it does well in a bog garden. I really ought to try them.
I think I will be moving mine when I build the planned small bog garden… 🙂
