Hospital Rooftop Blossoms

Narcissus

Spring bulbs are up and blooming in the third-floor  garden at  Southlake Hospital, Newmarket.

 Grape hyacinths and pink tulips

Volunteers care for this garden just outside the gym (aka rehab room).

    I'm sure that people who have to stay in hospital enjoy to see some flowers through the Windows!

    How beautiful and how nice. The only thing I've seen from hospital windows were old air conditioning units and pipes of various sizes!
