      This was full of purple sage that we planted 45 years ago and have been digging it out over the winter. There are cuttings waiting to go in.

        Lovely photos @shiney. I particularly like the one of the Hamamelis. Spring has definitely sprung in your garden :).

          Thanks @Plantminded

          Our yellow Hamamelis has been in full flower since January but that one is only just starting to show in the lovely sunshine.

                  Ivy may present some difficulties colonisation-wise, but you can’t fault its leaves for interest. :)
