So, you like Daffs, then!

You can't possibly ever have a dull morning with a garden like that!

And I'm jealous that your bluebells are out already, mine are nowhere near!

All I can say G is WOW:D  How do you cope with the customary 6 week dying down period.  I am always impatient to get everything cleared ready for the summer bedding.

I don't find it too much of a problem really, its all a question of timing I think.

The next thing to come up are some bluebells,allyssum saxatile, grape hyacinth which retains a bit of colour to the areas.

The other thing is the leaves (which are keeping the weeds at bay) are ready for cutting back just as I am ready to plant out my summer bedding. So from around February to November there is gnerally something on the go all the time.
