“Wild Flowers Outside My House” is the Sixth of my picture poster books and it’s about the wild flowers growing in my neighbourhood at Holland Grove Park. At the begining of 2020 when I first decided to scout around the neighbourhood for wild flowers, I spotted and photographed 10 varieties witihin thirty minutes on the first morning. This number went up slowly and by the third week I spotted and photographed 28 varieties. Most of the flowers are so tiny that you have to keep looking carefully at the ground to spot them. Some days you don’t see them as they are not flowering. Then a few days later, they appear where no flowers were seen a few days before! I published my humble 40-page book thinking that I have covered sufficient ground with the “discovery” of 28 varieties, until in June 2020, I found my 29th wild flower growing at my back fencing!
