Last year’s birthday present from my husband, now flowering just in time for this birthday coming up. It’s called ‘Hot Chocolate’. Mmmm

so gay in the April sunshine, spring yellow wallflowers predominate as you walk to our ancient Welsh cottage (with new extension off to the right)

Grape hyacinths popping up all over #InMyGarden this Spring - here in a dry stony bed at the foot of an apple tree.

What is going to happen this Spring with the blossom buds on our fruit trees? This is a Williams pear. At this stage of March last year, the weather turned arctic as the flowers opened, there were no insects to cross-fertilise, and consequently we had very few pears later. Now we’re wondering if there will be a repeat in 2025 as we enter another arctic-cold few days. Fingers crossed by the time the blossom is fully open, the air will be warmer and we will see bees and wasps visiting us.
