we woke to this...





A dusting of white. Quite a change from the lovely spring weather at the start of the week. I'd spent yesterday afternoon clearing last years dead from the beds, and then hearing the weather forecast decided to make little makeshift igloos for the new shoots. Hopefully they're nice and warm under there. After what felt like the busiest week ever it was nice to get out and potter for a couple of hours.

  1. Yes, we had quite a sprinkling of slush!
    What's under the pots? Be careful that you aren't forcing pale spindly shoots... maybe they'd be happier under a handful of mulch/dead leaves?

    1. Your right the pots aren't ideal, just a quick fix! I think I'll keep covering them at night till we're through this cold spell.

    1. I was just getting used to it! Sunny days, oh well at least we're getting noticeable longer days now, and not long till the clocks change :)
