What's looking good in March 2014

If we do, I'll try and remember.

Maybe we should have a thread headed "Did I promise plants or seeds?"

I always have this nagging thought in the back ground that I said that if I I'd dig things up, I'll save them for people - and rarely remember who, or what!

Members could then put reminders on it telling you what you promised.

 

@nFrost Our garden is doing quite well now since we've had the warmer weather. We tend to be a bit slow to get going as we're exposed to cold winds off the fields around us but the warmer spells give us a good start. I'll have to go out and take some piccies.

I'm particularly pleased with the Saphora that's trying to make everything else look dull!

 

You did say, Shiney, that you'd dig up all your borders and have the plants ready for me on this year's Open Day

 

You say laughter and I say larfter
You say after and I say arfter
Laughter, larfter after arfter
Let's call the whole thing off,

You like vanilla and I like vanella
You saspiralla, and I saspirella
Vanilla vanella chocolate strawberry
Let's call the whole thing off

 

A bit more colour that's in the garden right now


Marsh Marigold


Flowering Ribes








Anemone


This flower head is just the width of a match head!!!

 

Yep, they seem to germinate so readily, Joolz, and I've got hundreds to pot on somehow!!!

 

I know my memory isn't too good but I seem to remember that I said that you could come and dig my borders for me.

 

I've taken a few shots now.

In the undergrowth


One of the driveway borders. It's always full of spring colour




Katsura is always magnificent at this time of year. The contrasting colours fade during the summer


Chelsea jacket is doing well after a hard pruning in the winter


And the Saphora is continuing to open even more flowers. As it's the first time it has done so well I keep telling it that it's the star of the garden. There are a lot more buds coming

 

The Golden grass is starting to grow nicely


In the wild area


Ceanothus is starting to come out
