sunshine!

Hi i've been in my garden alday & yesterday, had no sunshine but it was dry no wind so i manage to get some weed membraine down with out it blowing all over the place, if its fine tomorrow i'll be out there again.

Hello Sewingkilla ~
My back garden was lovely and sunny today, with some bulbs flowering. :o)
I photographed Garrya elliptica "James Roof " with his long tassels and put the picture on GoY.
I would have done some gardening, but Truffle the puppy thought otherwise. Lol.
Yes, the grass is growing, but very wet, especially in the shady areas !

Not heard of Swan River daisies. Are they large plants ?

What are swan river daisies? Same as tt never heard of them. I have had a good as well Sewingkilla just did another blog. Can we do some swapsies of young plants?

Apparently they are Brachycombe, 'blue daisy like flower (from the picture they look a bit like a little aster) plant in baskets for a long lasting and beautiful display!' on the website i just looked at they are 7.95 for 4!!!!

Quite warm today for a while ,so I also made the most of it planted some new Primulas (then wished I had bought more) scarified bottom lawn because its a very shady area and I have a problem with the moss every year, moved some paving slabs which I am setting in my grass to provide a walkway where Malik and Morgan run,figured it would look better than the bare patches the dogs make running up and down.Also doing the same as you Sewingkilla and removing some of my Grape Hyacinths they are a lovely colour but they do get everywhere.All in all a grand day...Blow the hoovering thats gotta wait..LOL

Sunny here today but chilly in the wind.

I agree about grape hyacinths - I dug 2 trugloads out of my new bed. Next door's flowerbeds are just choked with them! I inherited them with the new area. :-(

Yesterday and today have been gorgeous. Not cold, no wind. Loads of sun. Sowing seeds, tidying beds, playing with the dogs. Discovering bulbs coming up that I 'd forgotten I 'd planted!! I agree about the grape hyacinths - they're everywhere -must thin them out. What a cracking day. Cant wait to get out there again tomorrow.

Beautiful her today too Sewingkill ! like you we cut hard back an old buddleia....should actually do the plants good...lots of new growth lower down ! Was lovely to hear all the birds singing in the surrounding trees and bushes....really felt springlike !

I was out in my snow boots today and it was too warm for a jacket. Funny to be out with snow boots and shirt sleeves. My ground is actually starting to show through in a couple of places.
I love grape hyacinths too. I just put some in last autumn. I hope they survived the winter.

Hi Sewingkilla Glad you had a nice day. I hope the spring will be good. There's such a lot to do. I like grape h's too but they do spread. I have some I brought from the other garden and I've put them in the ground hoping they'll give a nice show soon,
. Have another great day today. All the best :o)
