the weather has been amazing and I've been out in the garden pretty much everyday, either planting, potting on, weeding - only really pulling up baby Hazel trees and brambles. Lots of watering too, I can't remember the last time it rained. I'm risking putting out the courgettes now as we are in a heat wave for the forseable future and April is only for another couple of weeks so I doubt we will go back to freezing now. I've been very pleased with the tulips I got from wilcos last september, I wanted later flowering ones as the ones out the front are over by the end of march and these have looked good for most of April. I'm still curious what's in flower in May. I've got lots of herbs planted out as seeds that are still seedlings, lettuce too as well as annual flowers like sunflowers and marigolds. I've got herbs currently being nursed in pots in the conservatory, dozens of courgettes too, mainly to sell at the next nearly new sale but plenty to go out in my garden. Peppers too, both chilli and sweet. Lots of tumbling toms too, this year will be the year of red, yellow and orange tumbling toms.
