In Nfld., soil has much acid and much rock (but is not musical!). My colourful plants thus grow amid flat rock and small rock, and many plants-that-grow-wild. (Justification for calling my island "th' Rock").

But, my tulips and daffodils finally display colour, and form bright spots in foggy days, as did occur during last six-plus-unity days! I am afraid my young basil was burnt by a vigorous sunbath on Sunday, and I must bury small pips again, for a not-first try!
