Hotham Park Sketchers met today and it was so nice to feel the warm sun while I sat in the little Mediterranean garden drawing this Jerusalem Sage (Phlomis) which is one of my favourite plants with its velvety leaves and green buds. It will erupt bright yellow flowers later then green seedheads changing to a lovely red brown later whilst the leaves stay a soft green.
