I've been watching the verge under the hedgerow over the road very carefully in the hope that the daffodils and crocuses we planted last back end would begin to show. However, the weather's not been great - it's been a very damp February...
... and everything's been a bit bleak
not to say soaking wet....
But now, as we move into March, the crocuses are showing and the Daffodils are up and looking strong.
Around the remaining Elm saplings, they're looking good. (The boys who broke at least one of the Elm saplings - cost £250 each - were caught and we're looking for restorative justice. This probably means getting their parents to pay up.)
Under the wall by the care home, where it's a bit more sheltered, the dwarf daffodils are up and open...
... and, gloriously, so are the irises - perhaps my all-time favourite.
Looks like Spring is finally here. Can't wait for my retirement date at the end of May and a Summer of cricket, glass-cutting and the garden. Aaaaaah!
