Charlotte's Web

As the trees de-robe and summer blooms become a distant memory, the attention is focused on the structural architecture of the garden.  One of my favourite winter attractions is the humble spider's web, spun with alacrity to catch its prey the exquisite gossamer labyrinth sparkles adorned with dewdrops reflecting the low-slung sun.





Spiders, arachnids - layered with suspicion and mythology - are in fact our friends.  wander around the early morning garden to find their stunning artwork edged in ice!
