How does your garden grow February week 3

 Sunday and Sunshine at last as soon as we woke up we threw on some clothes and rushed out into the garden we even ate our breakfast out there we were so keen to get out in the sun.

Daddy had previously clean the greenhouse ready and Sophie got ready to plant our seeds sorting the trays and filling them up with soil ready for planting, we have another big project for the garden this year now our beach zone is finished but we will show you another week, but in preparation for the project Sophie is planting up lots of sunflowers and sweatpeas.

Daddy got busy weeding and turning our veg plots he also turned all the wood from our pear tree into kindle for this winter which is that massive pile you can see in the background,  we gave our pear tree a mega prune as you can see.

 Ella got her first introduction to gardening sitting on my chest and watch Sophie do the planting and watering and i can already imagine that next year i will have 2 helpers in the greenhouse.  We also found our first ladybug of the year snoozing in the fir tree and i suspect we might have a good year for them.

How does your garden grow February week 2

Out and about on a great walk and we saw some amazing tall trees, There was also this strange looking tree i am wondering if these lumps are some sort of parasite or if it is meant to be this way.

In a dark patch of the wooded area we found these white barked trees which caught the sun light and beamed light and gave great contrast to the dark nook.

there might not be lots blooming at the moment but there is still beauty out there if you look close enough We  saw some wonderful different types of lichen
