Just be patient....

 All of these plants may not look like much at the moment, but will soon be a riot of colour.





Day lilies - these were here when we bought the house and every year I amazed at how quickly they shoot back up from nothing!


This was also here when we bought the house - we call it the pompom bush - I'm sure it has a proper latin name. Anyone know what it is?

This month in the garden

The garden is changing daily, so I thought I'd try to record the changes as they happen.



The forsythia is in full bloom now (the flowers seemed to take almost 3 weeks to come out this year).

For me when it starts to flower I know it's time to prune the roses.  That's now been done and most of the other post-winter tidying.

Soon the bluebells will be drowning everything!


The tulips are nearly ready to bloom (the bluebells are all around them).
