There's something quite magical that happens to my garden after the rain. I believe the plants are smiling as they are coated with tiny drops of water.
Took this picture a couple of weeks ago and thought I'd post it today!

In fact, it was raindrops on everything while we visited Holehird Gardens, as it drizzled on and off all the time we were there. There were lots of snowdrops there and one of the volunteers told us that out of several thousand varieties, they have around 150 types in the garden.
