There’s a generous scattering of tiny Wood Anemones in the garden now—delicate, low to the ground, and quietly dazzling when the sun peeks through.

Known as the windflower, they’ve long been linked to fairies and old folk tales, said to carry whispers from the spirit world. Not one for remedies these days (a bit too strong-willed for that), but more than welcome just for the way they remind us to notice what’s fleeting and quietly beautiful.

They bloom when the sun shines, tuck themselves away when they’ve had enough, and seem perfectly content doing their own thing…..

Springtime wishes to you.
