The winter sun is very welcome today, even though the ground remains frozen

Yes stunning even with the killer frost. Yes Gilli inside looking out from the Pagoda, like a gazebo but usually tiered tower like shape.I thought I would help knowing how busy they are with their open gardens.

Thanks, Pf. This is an oriental pagoda - you will see it on some of our other photos. We needed planning permission because it was 3.2 metres high (the maximum without permission is 3 metres). One of our blogs describes it in detail.

Thanks to the night shift for their comments! How is it in Canada at the moment - I understand you recently had snow from coast to coast. In the spring, one of my sons is hoping to go there for a year on a work/visit visa. He is undecided which coast but has met a girl from Montreal so that might have some influence!

Thanks for the explanation PF and FS. I'm not really that daft. I just neglected to read the title of the photo.... :o( lol.
We did have snow coast to coast over Christmas FS. Unusual for the west coast to get much snow, I don't know about the east coast. Montreal is a very picturesque place. Lots of history there.....at least for Canada. Lots of French-Canadian speaking people too. Apparently French-Canadian is different than French-French.
I would say for him to come to the west coast, but I'm biased. LOL. BC is very beautiful and has a wide range of scenery and climates. Oceans, islands, mountains, plains, grasslands, forests, lakes, rivers, etc. I've never been further east than Montreal so I can't say much about the east coast. Newfienurse would be the expert there.

Thanks for your kind comments everyone. We are dividing the clumps of bamboo at the moment. It took a while but we have now learnt the technique!
