My garden's a little bit shady so takes a while to get going in the spring - needs the sun to get higher in the sky. I don't have a greenhouse but do have coldframe and wooden growhouse on southfacing fence.
I've got heritage tomato seeds to sow - I've not started them yet 'cos I didn't want them to outgrow the kitchen windowsill and have nowhere to move them on to in this weather, but time's running out - shall I start them off next weekend???
It can't stay this cold for ever can it?
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
I still havent started my tomatoes yet, was going to do them earlier in the year but so glad I didn't. By now they would be leggy with no chance of putting them outside in this weather. Was having trouble with my delphiniums but I think I was overwatering them.

Thanks nutcutlet will watch burdock hope does not go too mad and false sunflower growing a bit more
Keeping an eye on the false sunflower, except today, left it all to look after itself.

Aquilegia viridiflora up. It's a bit dark in the greenhouse today with all that snow on the roof. Might have missed some

I've been saying 'it can't stay this cold much longer' for weeks now Dove. I haven't done any of my spring sowing yet

Just pricked out my marigolds and cornflowers and some have flopped a bit an hour later. Hoping they recover, anyone else had this problem
