April showers - really!

Love the Corydalis it's very blue. Nice garden overall.

Wow! Hail, who would have thought it. We have missed the majority of the rain that was forecast, we are in a spot between two lots of water - the drain and the river and any rain falling tends to follow the water courses.
Love the Fritillaries, both sorts. would love mine to spread and cover the grass.
By the way, you can't bore a gardener with photo's of other people's gardens and plants.

I too love the blue Corydalis also Skimmia ‘Kew Green both beauties.
They said on the radio weather today it feels much colder than what it actually is I am more bothered with frosts.

I think the weather has taken a couple of big steps backwards, but your plants don't seem to mind in the least. Like others, I too think your Corydalis is lovely.

We've had hail too. The £25 plastic mini-greenhouse seems like a really good investment now☺

Pretty blue corydalis ...
... and amazing hail stones !

Lovely and different flowers, congrats for your garden

Lovely to see so many plants flowering bravely in spite of the cold - & the hail!

I bought a roll of fleece on Friday thinking it would come in useful if we had any late frosts - I'm glad I did as I will no doubt be using it during this coming week! :(

We did have some hail, but thankfully not as bad as that!! the Spotty Dotty is looking good, ours has a couple of nibbles on the lower leaves, but it is now much taller so I am hoping they will escape the worst of the damage....It is still very cold here, fleece back on the tree ferns but temps are set to rise dramatically towards the end of the week! so erratic....

yes could do with a few april showers now. cold wind still but no frost today. we have had a few hard frosts, even the astilbe has been knocked back and that usually weathers it well.
