I adore viburnum, mostly for the fragrance of some I've grown in the past. And I adore pink as well! I've never minded the girlish references, as I am not very girly in appearance and sometimes pink brings out that feeling, which I am all for these days, in my advancing years!

This made me giggle… poor pink it does seem to get stigmatised. I’ve met quite a few women who avoid it. As soon as I was old enough I demanded to stop being dressed in dresses and pink 😂 but I’ve always found certain pinks comforting - pink skies for instance.

I welcome these pinks now - I enjoy ‘feeling pink’ - I have some lovely dusky pastel pink curtains in the bedroom that go really well with the deep teal wall. And as for flowers, pink and green go so well together; thinking about it, in my mind when I picture a garden there are always pink flowers.
