Went to GC later on and there are lots of plants half price did not buy any, just brought bird food at a good discount as the pack I got is meant to be used by 1.1.15 and marker pens for labels
Lots of potatoes on the shelves
Nearly the allotment challenge
That sounds good Chicky about the manure for your garden
Hi Gg, I'd just list violas. It's always cold out there and trying to count each flower would take too long (for me)
OH has very strict rules for our count, flowers have to be open enough to see the parts inside and not so frosted you can't see colour any more. I'm not allowed any form of cheating (as if I would )
Warmer here too tonight and rising, its 3 c outside so far. I still have leccy blanket on though! Very slippery this morning, back end of car slipped on just frost.
I will look forward to doing the flower count, are we taking photo's?
Gardening on the wild, windy west side of Dartmoor.

Q for the new years day flower count do we count all flower heads on violas or is it counted as one?

What's the Flower count please?
New Years Day flower count Lyn. How many different plants have you got in flower on 1st January.
Very variable results here. lowest was none, all frosted off or under snow.
highest was 40+
I expect something in between this year.
Wildflowers count.

I'll be joining in on New Years Day - have already had a recce, but unless they are blooming on Thursday, it doesn't make the cut!!
