Just because they are nice.

Spring!
It is well and truly here. And many of the bulbs I planted last Autumn are pleasingly emerging.
Some old faithfuls are coming back.
Some new addition doing ok.
I love these little guys, have pots and pots of them now.
And the edible bits also looking OK. Strawberries are back…
And the fruit trees I put in have flowered and seem happy. I have high hopes for these this year.
Can’t wait for summer.
Spring has sprung
And there has been some sun.
And in response the garden is starting to get it’s act together. I planted hundreds (and that’s not an exaggeration) of bulbs last year, most of which I imagine have been feasted on by the local wildlife. Those that have made it through seem to be stirring.
And all inspired by this I invested in a bunch of flowers for the house too. It always feels extravagant to do this but I love them every time I look at them, which must make it worth the expense.
