That'll only happen in my house Verd...when the heating's on...
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
Just drove up the A11 into the city - the verges are full of yellow and purple crocuses - there was no sign of them just two days ago - I remember looking for them.
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
First primrose flowers in my garden today.
My snowdrops are out.
and few hellebores and not much else. The grass is long. If it stays dry, it may get mown.
that's a bit rash fidget. I've still got half a load of muck sitting on the grass out the front. Must get that shifted before mowing time.
In the sticks near Peterborough
Only going to be 13 here tomorrow
Sort of sunny here. What are you doing with a load of muck, Nut?
Are you going to start a veg patch? When someone else has dug over SIL's veg patch in Wales, I am planting it with Sarpo potatoes. It rains a lot there (near Snowden) , so I figure blight resistant varieties is the way to go. She is only going to be there intermittantly this year, until BIL retires next year and they move there permanently. I'm hoping that next year the ground is clear and she can have other types of veg that need a bit more looking after.
Not sunny, but warm in the garden today. Lots of spring plants showing, beautiful purple crocus, hellebores, primroses in bud, the first daffs, winter honeysuckle had quite a few visiting bees feeding on the flowers and the first camelia flower is open. Had a real spring in my step. Not much spring when I had finished weeding, tidying and hoeing in FBB. More of a stagger.
Good to see you back Verdun.
