The garden is really starting to spring into life, but there is a need for caution as despite some warm days the nights are still chilly.
The onions in the vegetable patch certainly enjoyed Saturday’s rain. Potatoes are also starting to sprout.
And the lettuce and spinach in the greenhouse should be ready to eat pretty soon.
The herb garden is now relocated to the warm steps of the conservatory and the old herb garden still being transformed.
Also some lettuce and strawberries
The rhododendrons are just starting to bloom, adding colour to the shadier parts of the garden.
The pelargoniums having overwintered indoors are spending their days outside. On the patio the tubs and pots are still blooming with their winter plants.
Fortunately the Apple blossom survived the recent frost.
In an earlier blog I was tidying around the Acer. The Acer now is thriving, however there appears to be far too many astilbes so the next task will be divide them.
