  • Week 206 – Feb 25th – New plant

    Today we had a chance to clean up the garden a bit as the weather was reasonable.

    Claire had pointed this plant out before, but strangely, we only saw it at one garden centre.

    It’s called a Caprea Kilmarnock. We look forward to it blooming in the garden this year.

    Just a picture of the new plants that we had potted recently, looking good. Plus the red robin still going strong.

    As you can see the bench is still covered because we have had hardly any decent weather.
