It’s amazing how much difference a week can make in the garden!

I just love my Hellebores
My Alpine Pot
This is my raised bed starting to fill out with Spring colour
These purple crocus just get better and better
Today I think we had all the seasons thrown at us.
It started with heavy rain, wind and then temperatures rose to 12deg and finally some sunshine for a short time.
I even had a little stroll in the garden in the light rain.
One of my favourite Hellebores.
This purple crocus is now in bud and will soon be a mass of spectacular colour.
This is my white double crocus.

This is my blue and white theme area of plants which I planted up last summer.
Plants are still young so as this starts to grow I may still need to add to it.
Daphne Laureola ssp Philipi was new to my garden last Spring. I bought it as a young plant to grow on.

It all started this week with the weather turning much colder.
We have had hard frosts for some time now but still no sign of now until late Friday night then it arrived.
Saturday 4th February
The Snow started at 8.00am UK time and snowed all day long. It was icy cold but this morning is not feeling as cold now.
Not sure if this a good sign or not. Maybe the calm before the next storm.
