    I finished planting out the potted daffodils (just Allium to do now but they flower later, so no hurry). Then dug up a bucketful of bluebells.

    Does power washing the terrace count? It was horribly green after out mild rainless winter. My pots and planters are all really dry as it nearly 2 months since we had any substantial rain. Can’t believe I had to actually water some of them as my primulas were wilting.

    No gardening for me as I have been  sofa surfing all week, bad stomach,  and am now only just starting to eat again. Just had to happen when I wanted to start seeds off, and now we are due snow next week.🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️

    I've sown a few chilli seeds to go in the windowsill propagator. Must sit on my hands and resist the urge to sow any more tender stuff - not enough space to grow everything I'd like indoors for the next three months.

    I talked about gardening with my mum for an hour, does it count? 😁

    I've sown some chili peppers, too.  I couldn't resist and started my impatiens and some eryngium, but I have a shelving system with grow lights so it gives me a little more room.  Of course, that just means I'll sow even more seeds, and still have the same space problem. ;)

    @CrankyYankee it's better to have too many than not enough. 😁

    I managed to finish a decorating task in our soon-to-be-occupied nursery today so I rushed out to snatch an hour in the greenhouse where I potted up some Lavender cuttings.

    23 out of the 24 I cut have taken so i'm very pleased considering it was my first attempt and they looked so dreadfully pathetic ever since I cut them last year.
