    Help With Growing Seeds

    Great setup @GreenFingeredPete ! You're wrong re economics. If there's any seeds you can't buy plants of, then it's worth it! (That's what I keep telling myself)

    I have to correct myself. I had a look into my pictures and found the same stage for the Daffodils, Exochorda and Deutzia in 2024. The 5th of March was my dad's birthday and for most of the time since I planted them in 2017, the Daffodils were not ready on that day.

    Latest moan from you and me 2026

    My hubby always says "terrible things happen in the countryside". Glad I live in suburbia. I think he means people get murdered and no-one hears.

    Gardens and Pretty Places we have visited

    Great photos, we haven't been to Wisley for ages too. Same reasons the roadworks, it's a long trip for us anyway as we are on the opposite side of London.

    What's buzzing flying near you 2026

    Late afternoon visit from a Sparrowhawk which looks like a new young male, no bigger than a Collared Dove. Fortunately it didn't catch anything.

    What are we doing in the garden 2026

    Sowed some chillies as the ones that we hoped would survive overwintering without the greenhouse didn't quite make it. :sad: Five months outside was a bit too much for them.
