Preparation for Spring.

I’ve been on a train all day again...but your garden looks lovely, and I’m sure the fertilizer will be fine. :)

You have been busy and your garden shows it looks lovely. I am sure your roses will benefit for the feed its not far off spring weather and that's the time to feed them.

Your garden looks perfect.

You have been busy in your garden, and it shows, it is looking so good, pristine!! in fact ....you don't seem to have any messy areas like ours, makes ours look so untidy!
We have fed the roses with farmyard manure, Oh raked the lawn and gave it its first feed, ( animal and child friendly) then it had its first cut of the year...... I am giving the borders a mulch of composted bark, and that's us !!

very effective, all your hard work looks wonderful.

Yes you are right about a cold blast and snow in a few weeks time according to this.

You have been busy Julia and I too think fertilising now is fine. You have a beautiful garden. I am slowly landscaping this new one , but its hard going as each time I lift some turf , there is clay underneath. But I just do a bit each day and then change to another gardening job , so that I don't get fed up with lifting turf.

Wow. I'm quite envious lol but if I will get a puppy. Everything is going in his mouth so I can't take my eyes off him so in this lovely weather, no gardening for me. Your garden look great and ready for the spring.

Your hard work is showing in your photos, all looks good! Yesterday I mowed and edged the grass, disappointed to see much moss, had a frost on it overnight so may have cut too early.
Temps up to 16 degrees today, saw many folk sitting on the beach, crazy for the end of February. Hailstones and freezing temps this time last year!

I'm itching to plant two Roses that are in the cold greenhouse now ... would be cross if they were hit by a sudden freeze though!

Thanks for telling me that ... I will get them both planted today ... :o)

Shirley we planted five new roses, just after Christmas, some bare rooted some potted, and they have sailed through the frosts!

Great news Dotty ... I planted both the new Roses today as the sun was shining again ... :o)

It certainly is ... today's task is raking moss out of the lawn ... then some more planting.

Not in this house ... walk-in shower only! I only ever occasionally long for a soak in a bath ... :o)
