    What's your weather like 2026

    You are trapped under one of those cold pools of air, it pushed way down south over the weekend as far as I can see on the forecast.

    Plants you don't grow

    Seed Sowing This Month April

    Someone told me rhubarb was expensive but I've never looked as it pretty much grows wild down our allotment. 90% of what I pick is given to others, now I know why:)

    Did some weeding of the gravel ‘garden’ by the pond, moved a couple of Foxgloves, planted a fern under my big Acer, grass cut (ok not by me), and had a lovely potter about.
