    Lots of rain overnight has cleared nearly all the snow and it’s still raining ☔️

    It rained a bit here yesterday afternoon which cleared the snow, but it's raining again today so probably no gardening other than taking the kitchen waste out to the compost bin.
    Doncaster, South Yorkshire. Soil type: sandy, well-drained
  • Yes GWRS  went to bed white over and woke to clear of snow. Only outside thing I have done is feed the birds, in the rain, hope they appreciate it!
  • No, but I did go further down the garden, and disturbed a squirrel (not in picture).

  • More snow for us, but it's going to be 30 degrees warmer by the weekend, so it'll all melt.  I'm worried that most of my newly planted perennials will end up heaving out of the ground if this pattern keeps up all winter.

    @rowlandscastle444 is that your new garden?
    New England, USA
    Metacomet soil with hints of Woodbridge and Pillsbury

    Yes, it is. I've yet to wander further down to photograph more of it. But it is a mature garden, well looked after by the previous owner. 
  • Well after all the rain and flooding in the area today NO RAIN! So out harvesting some leeks and kale as well as some more parsley which surprisingly has survived after all the frosts. So the 6 willows are now pollarded on the edge of the orchard and collected the mower after it had been serviced.

    Had a bit of sunshine this afternoon, so opened Greenhouse for a bit of ventilation and topped up bird feeders 
    Rain this morning so jobs indoors today , everything is so “wet “
  • It's been so wet all week, I've still not ventured down to the end of the garden. Maybe today, because it's looking brighter.
  • @rowlandscastle444 will be fun to watch what comes up in the first season.😁
