Daffodils at last


Here they are at last – the first daffodils to be spotted this Spring.

The daffs and everything else are very late after the harsh winter but these two buds were spotted the day before yesterday. Sharon says that she has heard that observers all over the country have reported that gardens are weeks behind normal. But a careful inspection of the bare branches of plants show that the buds are there, just biding their time. And in greenhouses and sunny shelves inside houses seedlings and shoots are being brought on in the warmth ready for planting out. Sharon has the seeds for beefsteak tomatoes in a pot and a growbag read to plant them in once the spring really gets under way.
