Signs of spring

The plane tree in Festival Walk

The garden has got through the gales without any significant damage – a lot of fallen twigs which have been cleared in the work session yesterday.
 
The bulbs that we planted last autumn are well above the ground and look like they are growing fast. They have been beaten by snowdrops which have popped their heads out of the lawn and flowered along with a crocus and a small daffodil. A few of the daisies in the grass have also flowered. The winter planting in the pots are also looking more cheerful.
 
We continued work on the clearance of the box hedge by the wall of the sheds area. The box has got blight and the site is sunny and would make a flower bed. We should be able to finish this next session.

We should be in a position to do some more planting soon.

The pots in the back garden.....
