How lovely to have a little piece of Chelsea in your own garden, and I'm envious of your self seeded aquilegias, mine are always the standard purple or hazy pink, I do love that hot pink one.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17436932004631816039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6288480452785054795.post-40624594291042217572013-06-05T16:33:53.134+01:002013-06-05T16:33:53.134+01:00Revision, boo; cake, hurrah!
