We sell cut flowers when we have them' planning to have a lot more this year..

Today at our stall, a bunch of glorious yellow tulips ( bought a bag at LIDL and they are great).. and two big bunches of Sweet William. In March...

People would not believe they had not been grown in heat but we have no tunnel etc here.

They were sown last spring; again a cheap packet from LIDL, and as the winter has been so mild and the garden is sheltered, the warm sun this last week has brought them into flower.

One packet saw many seedlings sold and a good few bunches too during the year.

But crazy seasons....

May be back later; arthritis is bad so resting now...
