Just planted it today Oji...hence the water. Although I have found that I am having to water somethings already - the ground is bone dry. I can't remember the last time we had rain for more than a couple of hours!!

I've been having to water, too, not just pots but some of those in the ground. The primroses and the bluebells were drooping in the heat today. I've seen weather like this in April, like last year, but never March. I always disconnect my outside water from November to May for frost, but it looks as though I'd better get it running again if this goes on as promised. I can hardly believe that this time last year I was still shovelling snow!

Don't think I've ever had to water the garden in March before!

That is a beauty. My winter flowering pansies have been a big disappoinment this year. They refused to bulk up. I discovered why yesterday and had to get the hose out of storage. I also added some replacements to try and give me a show before I replace the troughs. I like to water in the morning early in the year in case it is frosty overnight and the water freezes on the plants. I have never watered in March before that I can remember.

That looks really healthy. Was it raining with you or we're you having to water plants already?
