Could do with some real sun - anything but this grey, grey, grey.
(btw my SPs are doing well - they seem to like this weather, are putting on growth and look pretty healthy. Whether or not this will compromise the flowering - who knows?)
[Except you, of course, master of the SPs that you are )

Well, as you mention it, SV...me old mate Derek Heathcote (boss of Eagle SPs) was on regional TV yesterday, saying that he was struggling to find enough blooms for his Chelsea display this year, because of the cr*p weather.
Take heart Derek, next week's heatwave will set you up nicely for Hampton Court!
Don't want to take over the weather thread - but David it gives me heart! If my plants are lots of healthy (I hope) growth and leaves, but no real sign of flowers yet, it gives me perverse hope that experts are also struggling.
Dunno what the weather will be over the next couple of weeks - but those who, at Chelsea, anticipated near-drought conditions, may wish they had opted for slightly different planting schemes!
I do hope that David is right my joints (bones) are aching like crazy for some heat, it's cold and wet outside 7.2c in the garden, went to post a letter and by the time I got back I was frozen, need to put big winter coat on when I go out its stupid at this time of year.
Rained heavily overnight so everywhere is soaked - now just cool and overcast. But we are supposed to reach the dizzy heights of 20C on Tuesday on current predictions

Yes, It's much the same here in the Midlands, Rain.....dark cloud, cold & miserable.
I think we are to go sub-tropical about Wednesday.
Crikey...I do despair of these quote boxes at times. I've never even read the first one included in my last message, let alone clicking on it to quote it.

Damp and overcast here in North Yorks, and supposed to be the same over the weekend.
Supposed to brighten up next week, though

Cloudy and cool but dry. It feels more like March than May .
