My passion in life is gardening and specifically growing flowers from seed

March 2024

Apologies once again for the silence.

I’ve actually been able to get into the garden and do things the last few days. It’s been so wet here and damp. The grass is more moss than grass and rather sponge like to walk on.

I sowed my sweetpea seeds a couple of weeks back in the greenhouse and a few have appeared.

I have done yet more tidying up, it never seems to end and some grass edge cutting and weeding.

We have a few things flowering at the moment. Hellebores, forsythia, daffodils and Camellias. I’ve included crocus too which are so pretty. Pictures below

First camellia of 2024

It’s started a bit earlier than some years and hopefully won’t be put off by sudden cold spell

April 2023

I can’t believe it’s April already although I have to say I love the lighter evenings and driving home in the light even when I finish late and I love the sense of expectancy in the garden and seeing new things flowering every day. I have done a little weeding and some seed sowing but have lots more work to be done in the coming days. For now I leave you with pictures of what’s currently looking good in my garden

First camellia of the year in my garden 2022

Sorry to bombard with posts after being quiet for a while! Spring is my favourite season as I love seeing new things pop up in the garden every day and signals the end of winter (hopefully). I’m quite impatient in wanting to know if some plants have survived or not and so far it’s looking quite good.
