Spring breaking out all over!

Visiting London and searching for signs of spring in the city this weekend.


Silver Birches in the sun at the Tate Modern...


...pretty Prunus at St Pauls...


...and a mystery plant in Tottenham. Any ideas anyone?

    Hi. Love your photos. I'll be very surprised if your mystery plant isn't a Loropetalum chinensis (Chinese Fringe Flower.) Not sure exactly which variety, but it looks like one of these is close:
    it might be Fire Dance. Or, whichever one Wikimedia has pictured here:

      Hi Sarah, You are absolutely right, I have come across it since and I would love to put one in my garden. I just have to find some space and that is a challenge. Thanks for reading the blog and lovely to hear from you. Emily
