Daffs are just opening.
Rose bushes are budding and so are all my Hydraneas ❤️
I was doing an inspection/light pruning earlier and all my plants look promising so far, which is always a relief as we have some right issues with the local Slugs. 🤞

"Daffs are out. Hellebores. My grasses are shooting out after their Valentines Day cut. Peony is maybe going to flower after nothing since I planted it like 3yrs ago 🤞"
Keeping fingers crossed for your peony. |

"Daffs just out, then Tulips then Aliums. Planning to re plant my borders this Spring so will be looking for inspiration🌷.
Sounds good and sure you will get plenty. Maybe from this thread too "
Definitely. Try to go bee friendly so plenty of lavender and some thistles too although the buggers can take over! |

Treat them well but ask them if they might do some honey for you (actually would love to have my own beehives ) |

My Dad was a beekeeper but I've never had the space or time. |

Same here. Well not had space or time I mean. You can only keep them in certain locations anyway. Perhaps a Looking for a beekeeper thread and we go and visit them. |

My Pulmonaria Blue Ensign has it's first little open flower. I'm ridiculously excited about that 
Also, my Chimonanthus has 4 whole flowers this year. It's not been in long, so next year I'll have even more. It smells bloody divine. |

Had a chrysanthemums that flowered for what felt like half the year last year.. not got very much apart from evergreen azaleas and camellias (that don't seem to flower), and a something else I've forgotten the name of. |

Generally things that can handle my rather neglectful/ unknowledgeable approach to gardening.
I've a hydrangea and bleeding heart amongst others that seem to keep going year after year. Just hoping some of my more recently planted ones survived their first winter haircut. Not sure if I was a bit too severe. Will have to see come the summer what pops up |

Some have even longer to wait actually hydrangeas aren't too bad with neglect |

"a couple of rose 🌹 bushes that I should have pruned by now I'm sure!
I am hoping this isn't a rugby reference Dai? Big one next week. "
Yeah, if there was ever a time I want to see the rose pruned, it'll be next weekend!! Not that confident though in all reality! |

The house i moved to has a lot of different shrubs ,trees and plants half of them no idea what they are.
Only thing i have added is more daffodils,tulips,snowdrops,hyacinth,azaleas after i made some larger borders.
Also put in some heathers after reading they was good for bees.
I am planning to add some foxgloves this year also good for bees but will mean i have to take out some existing plants and not decided which yet. Other option would be in planters. |

I have echinacea and lots of lavender that should come up again beautifully later this year.
Next weekend I’ll be planting calendula, marigolds, chamomile and nasturtiums too (alongside the veggies) |

It had a tremendous innings and had been a cheap buy, as it wasn't a named variety. |
