I realise I’ve not been posting much lately and well I guess I’ve been too busy actually working in the garden weather permitting. It’s been pretty cold and wet here in the north west of England for a few months now with the exception of this weekend. I have been busy taking pictures though and compared to my pictures of the garden on May 2020 it’s quite behind.
These are the tulips I have planted this year in pots/troughs with wallflowers that I grew from seed and pansies not grown from seed.
I like to try different tulips each year and like them in pots because in the ground apart from the fact they are likely to rot with clay soil and a lot of rain it means I don’t end up digging up them up when I’ve forgotten where they are.

Here is a finished trough
Hoping I’m not bombarding you with blogs but I have more time. Can’t imagine why! I think they are more tulip foxtrot but they don’t look much like the packet!
