Spring gardening

I know, I know, I haven't posted in months! Writing regular blog updates is proving to be quite a challenge for me. I almost closed this blog a few months ago, but sentimentality made me think twice. And now I am very glad, because I seem to have found my blogging enthusiasm again...

As I posted last time, we lost our allotment at the end of last year, so Spring this year has been very strange for us. I've got no potting shed, half a greenhouse and virtually nowhere to plant any veg plants. I have, however, made a good start on converting the lawn to a huge vegetable bed:

Just need to finish double-digging now and then my husband can make the wooden frame. And then I can plant all my veggies!

All of last year's bulb planting has proven a success, and we've been rewarded with a lovely spring border this year. All the daffodils and Snakes Head Fritillaries have come up.

And in the damp garden, the Pulmonaria "Blue Ensign", the Forget-me-nots and the Hellebores are all doing really well:

Now that the weather has warmed up, I'm looking forward to getting out there a bit more often and getting stuck into the Spring planting. Happy gardening everyone!
