Finally feel like I am getting somewhere with the garden, after all the rain this winter.
Have spent the last 2 days at it pretty much full time and a little bit of order is starting to emerge. Most of last years perennials are now cut down and I am slowly weeding the borders.
Seeds are starting to germinate on window sills all over the house and the greenhouse is bursting at the seams.
It feels like it is that manic springtime again.
How can you lie there and think of England When you don't even know who's in the team
Pristine snowdrops - (I have a circle of camomile lawn under a tree and in the middle of normal lawn) I have planted the snowdrops 'nice and evenly' around the outer circle, with other bulbs a la naturalle in the rest.
Hello folks back from visiting Aged Ps - both well and happy surrounded by flowers and cards.
Lovely drive in bright sunshine - snowdrops, hazel catkins, daffodils and primroses lining the hedgerows and in sheltered corners hawthorn hedges were greening up. I saw a kestrel (logged on the Hawk Conservancy's Kestrel Count) and also a sparrowhawk being chased by seagulls over a ploughed field.
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
