Last week's excitement was the first seeds of 2023 germinating - sweet peas. So one of those gorgeous summer stars seemed the perfect choice for today's Cheering Up Mondays flower.
This was part of my Gardening Trials a couple of years ago. Read more about it on my blog: https://thechattygardener.com/cheering-up-mondays/cheering-up-mondays-356/

The first Cheering Up Mondays of the year and a garden survivor.
These violas may look delicate but they've stood up to wind, rain, snow and freezing temperatures.
While we all hope the new year will bring better times, it could be difficult for many reasons. We may need to channel our inner viola!

Day 19 of my Flower Advent Calendar is also this week's Cheering Up Mondays flower.
I grew this rather lovely dwarf iris for the first time this year.
I love these iris particularly in pots where you can place them high up and enjoy the flowers close-up.

This week's Cheering Up Mondays flower, which is doubling up as Day 12 of the Flower Advent Calendar. There's only one colour in my garden this morning - white after yesterday's snow.

The last Cheering Up Mondays of the month and something that's been brightening my garden for weeks.
It's not something you'd look at twice for most of the year but over winter these bell-shaped flowers are a joy.
Clematis cirrhosa balearica, well worth space in any garden.
