For now, however, here are some snaps that I really, really like.
Rudbeckia, scabiosa and dianthus that I pricked out and potted on. Some will stay, but a couple will be for friends. No more info in case they are reading!
Double tulip. They have become one of my favourite flowers.
Some nice, traditional daffodils
Loving the contrast between the brick and the muscari.
Felt a bit let down by the narcissus at first as the flowers are tiny! But I have grown to love them.
My father-in-law gave me this hydrangea last winter, it has started to grow! If you know what that grassy plant is, do let me know. There are clumps all over the garden.
After the initial shock of being outside, the sweet peas have started growing up the wigwam (or, teepee, as I like to call it). I did have to loosely tie them to the structure as they were too short and floppy at first and I had noticed some snail nibbles!!
The diantus is looking promising.
And the violas are still quite happy.
I bought these winter pansies in, well, winter. They had grown a little leggy and bare and was about to through them out when I noticed there was new growth. So I pruned them, took them out of the pot they were in (where salad leaves now live) and I now have them in the greenhouse chilling for a little while until they look healthy again to go out and play.
Finally, we have one of the two M&S daisy buckets I bought a month or so ago. It sure is looking promising.
