I wait eagerly for my Camassia to flower. It started as two bulbs a few years ago and has now spread and is rather taking over this bed. But one forgives it for its glorious smoky blue-ness.
I hadn't realised that it was a wild flower also, until Lorrie mentioned it.
Lovely Pasque flower, Pulsatilla. This is always the first colour in the bed. This photo was taken a couple of weeks ago. Now it is covered in flower and getting rather too large!
A free spirit.
These Violets are wandering around the garden, popping up where they wish. They are such a lovely splash of blue that I can't bear to remove them.
Tomatoes a week ago in their pots, are now planted in the earth in the greenhouse. I always put a companion plant with them, of French Marigold, not beautiful but supposed to keep Greenfly away.
It seems to work.
Here in the South West , our weather seems to be gradually improving. The earth is becoming warm. Plants are beginning to grow rather than just sitting forlornly in their pots.
It's at last a time to enjoy gardening.
