Spring heat wave!


It's spring, and with three bank holidays within a span of 8 days - It is great to have the sun! Feels like summer....

Look what I found growing amongst my flowers!


It's too hot to weed and plant during the day - so it's either early morning or early evening! Just planted out some sunflowers!

Early Spring

I've had a joy of a time, seeing early signs of spring. Every corner of the countryside is filled with snowdrops. Crocus heads are starting to sprout out, yellow, purple and white colours! It was a sunny day, wonderfully refreshing to be out and about.

I learnt about an early spring flower commonly known as the snowflake plant. It's so delicate and similar to a snowdrop, with a bigger head and a yellow/light green pattern against white petals. Here's a photo I took to show some friends!



Tulips are in season this year!!! I've got a bunch by my table, I've really started to appreciate flowers since moving to UK. Truly an overlooked phenomenon.
