Here is a beautiful painting inspired by a wonderful British folk song from 1962 - 

How many kinds of sweet flowers grow In an English country garden?
We'll tell you now of some that we know and those we miss you'll surely pardon.
Daffodils, heart's ease and flox, meadowsweet and lady smocks, gentian, lupine, and tall hollyhocks
Roses, foxgloves, snowdrops, blue forget-me-nots in an English country garden

How many insects come here and go In an English country garden?
We'll tell you now of some that we know and those we miss you'll surely pardon
Fireflies, moths, gnats and bees, spiders climbing in the trees, butterflies drift in the gentle breeze
There are snakes, ants that sting, and other creeping things In an English country garden

How many songbirds fly to and fro, in an English country garden?
We'll tell you now of some that we know and those we miss you'll surely pardon
Bobolink, cuckoo and quail Tanager and cardinal Bluebird, lark, thrush, and nightingale
There is joy in the spring, when the birds begin to sing, in an English country garden


Originally recorded by Jimmie Lee, but then made popular again by Rolf Harris and Nana Mouskouri, the song seems to fit perfectly with this lovely image of a British garden in summer. Painted by the popular British artist Hilary Jones. Hilary was a practicing optometrist for many years, but now that she is retired she spends hours painting her two favorite subjects, colorful English flower gardens and cats. This lovely scene perfectly illustrates her style, and we are thrilled that she gave it to us, as we think it makes a beautiful wooden jigsaw puzzle.

The perfect gift for wooden jigsaw puzzlers and flower and bird lovers, this traditional adult wooden jigsaw puzzle can be done time and again. Our wooden jigsaw puzzle artists have included many bird and butterfly-shaped whimsy wooden jigsaw puzzle pieces that match the subject of the image, and we have integrated them in ways that will delight and surprise you as you put the wooden jigsaw puzzle together.
