…should you be so inclined….
1. Get some bulbs in the ground….or if you don’t have any ground, get some planted in a pot. Right now I am layering up crocus, iris, daffs, tulips and alliums..yes, that’s december to June loveliness (if the squirrels don’t get them first)
2. Plant some wallflowers – lovely groundcover all winter and knock-out scent in the spring. I’ve bought some plants from a nursery (it really is okay to do this…you’re not cheating). Bung them in the ground (or in a pot, why not?) and enjoy.
3. Lastly, one word….Hippeastrum. I know these bulbs are expensive, but it’s so worth investing in a few and putting them in pots, say three per month until January for total indoor drama between winter and spring.

I made the most of the dry weather yesterday by mowing and edging the lawn, pulling out any weeds as the ground was amiable due to amount of rain we have had, trimming back any shrubs that were overhanging the lawn and trimming the lavender that was getting a bit too friendly with Lexie, our vintage campevan. I felt really pleased with myself and am glad I done it yesterday considering what the weather is like today.
