January in the garden

 Hi Everyone

Happy Monday

and

Happy New Year

~2012~

January is a busy time 

 at
~White Ironstone Cottage~ 

♥

Starting off the New Year in the garden

A wonderful time to be outside and prune the roses and the hydrangeas 

 smell the crisp fresh air and  get a little exercise too

Pruning  now helps the plants bloom in the spring

The last of the white iceberg roses

Spotted a few new flowers by the front gate

Grateful the Camellias 

are starting to bloom 

{Love}  

their bold and beautiful colors
The camellias always seem to find their way into our birdbath

♥

 Pansies to put around the boxwood

to add a little more color

Put more pansies in the white pot by the front door too

Grateful there are
 a few colorful  flowers to bring inside the house
they always add a little beauty and romance !!

{Love}
to bring the outdoors inside

 linking with
Show off your Cottage Monday

romantic saying for today
 "Love conquers all things"
