February 2018

Looking forward to the spring. Plants in the garden seem to be confused. Snowdrops are abundant and welcome, but some plants like 5-yearly-lasting geraniums outside under the window have received terminal damage – so has a large purple-flowered Hebe, but crocuses, daffodils and tulips are appearing and there are lots of bud on tress and shrubs. When the weather warms I will move things around to fill gaps. The weather forecast means severe weather will continue.
