Whats Looking Good in March 2023

Yesterday I was out & about & saw plenty of flowering trees. In fact our local council planted a very long double line of trees back in October - November & in between they planted 1,000s of Daffodils & Crocuses - I had no idea they had done this till a week or two ago when I saw Daffodil leaves pushing through the soil! I was fortunate enough to see them again yesterday but now they were flowering!

Even a few of the trees had started to put out pink flowers! I checked the trees months ago to see if they had a name tag but none of them had.

A few from this morning

 

That's great, they will look great when everything is established and i think that the trees are flowering cherry.

 

@Logan, yes, you are probably right! In a few years they will look fantastic!

 

Here are a few of the trees I saw flowering the other day.

The first two trees stand like guards on either side of the entrance to a street called 'Sycamore Close'.

 

Well, I'm pretty impressed. About 8 weeks after sowing, my miniature rose is starting to flower.

Rosa chinensis, 'Angel Wings' Seeds £2.25 from Chiltern Seeds - Chiltern Seeds Secure Online Seed Catalogue and Shop

The pack had 20 seeds but only this one germinated so I have duly complained to Chiltern's. I hope they will send replacement seeds as these little ones are truly lovely and healthy plants.

 

Oh, well done, it looks healthy. I have some of those seeds but not from Chiltern.

 

A few from today.

Planted another 1060 tulips in November 22, mainly in pots so should have quite a colourful display soon.

A gift from my daughter for Mother's Day

 

Aww @Sienna's Blossom .. such treasures .....I have a case full that I received over our children's younger years. All gifts from them were lovely but during the early years stage it was the homemade ones that really and truly touched my heart. I have one such drawing on my dressing table and it makes me smile every day, it was from our middle son and is a picture of ...me!!

I have curly hair that sports a lopsided hair cut ( I occasionally permed my hair back in the old days ) ,huge earings in my ears and the standard 'stick' arms and legs. Underneath he proudly wrote ' My Mummy'. It always makes me start my day with a warm feeling in my heart.
