Sunny Spring

A week of contrasts. At the start of the week it was very warm and I got sun burnt when I was on my allotment on Tuesday. I have been doing a lot of gardening this week planting seeds both flowers and vegetables in my greenhouse.

Just a few seeds are beginning to show

I have started to extend my allotment beds. We have just acquired a border collie and she is occupying a lot of our time. She is very timid but I manged to coax her onto the allotment on Tuesday. Once she settled in she was happy.

So many spring flowers are in full bloom. Daffodils come in many different varieties and sizes.

I love the flowering red currant it has its own unique perfume.

It smells slightly of blackcurrants

The grape hyacinths in my front garden.

Tiny darts of blue

I have several large hyacinths that have a strong perfume.

They flower for a long time

The drumstick primulas stand up straight.

My sprout plants on the allotment have blown.

Ready to be thrown away

The rhubarb will soon be ready to harvest.
