Spring flourish

 Finally days of blue skies and sunshine, warm weather wakes sleepy bulbs to lift their heads and don hats that make the garden come alive as if a carnival is coming.
 I am very happy with the pots at the front of the house last year we made the layered pots   and im surprised the pansies are still going strong with no sighs of stopping as the tulips crocus and iris barge their way up through soil.




 We saw our first buzzy bumbler today probably very hungry after sleeping all winter
 I love these polyantha victoriana gold lace they are so pretty i will grow more next year from seed
 lovely delicate woodland cyclamen
 Mean while down in the meadow the Phesants seem to also be feeling the effects of the spring weather and are starting to stalk the ladies.
We have been hard at it rolling the mud into paths carving up the mud square into plots

    So, is the meadow to be a veggie patch?

    Your pots are looking wonderful already - mine are just coming through but I'm so pleased to see signs of life! They're in a north facing garden in a sheltered spot so are likely to be later but I've been brave and un-bubblewrapped them! Love the bulbs in that grate, they look ...er great (sorry - couldn't resist!) #hdygg

    Oh my you will have muscles of steel pushing that around ! Hard work but so rewarding I bet. I love all your pots and planters, the grate especially. I love your polyantha victoriana gold lace too - really striking. Ahh happy days are these. Great how much better a drop of sunshine makes us all feel!

    Thank you for joining in again lovely x
