@judy_cassells @GardensHour Black Parrot? Mine have done ok this year but I do have different tulips each year as there are so many lovely ones to choose from! #GardensHour

@PygmyCreative @GardensHour I've one of those too - & I mean only one!

Hello and welcome to #GardensHour What’s bringing you joy in your early May garden? For a fun theme this week, a little nod to #StarWarsDay - let’s see your take on it!

@GardensHour The Force will be with you #GardensHour . Always

Goodbye old friends, May the Forth was fun! #GardensHour Thanks for joining in, even if it’s not your thing - we all need some lightheartedness once in a while! Next week will be a focus on your plans for MAY, specifically anything new you’re trying. See you then 👋

@GardensHour Luminous beings are we. Not this crude matter. Tree Peony flowers opening up nicely now #GardensHour #StarWarsDay

@GardensHour “This is getting out of hand. Now there are two of them.” Tree lillies are coming on well. #GardensHour #StarWarsDay

@Daphne_Meadows_ Hmm. Judge me by my size would you? #GardensHour

Found a Holly Blue, I did. Beautiful, it was. #GardensHour #Maythe4th #StarWarsDay

@GardensHour The X-wing like foliage of Euphorbia lathyris. Usually classed as a weed but in my opinion she’s got it where it counts #GardensHour #StarWarsDay

@BubblyNas @GardensHour Definitely some hope there #GardensHour

@GardensHour Feeling hopeful 🤞🌱 #GardensHour

Hello! A huge welcome to #GardensHour! And let’s say goodbye to April! What have been your biggest accomplishments in your garden this month? Have you got an absolute favourite photo you’ve taken that you’d like to share?

@GardensHour Evening #GardensHour my favourite photos of April are the tulips - Double Fringed Brisbane (nice but should be a lot taller), and the still yet to open Black Parrot

@GardensHour Gosh the year seems to be going by quickly! Have a good week #GardensHour

Thanks all for another wonderful #GardensHour Lots blooming in your gardens, lots of work going on for you all, and they’re looking fabulous! Next week we’ll recap on how April has been for you and it’s our Q&A week. See you then 👋

@GardensHour Evening #GardensHour I’ve cut back and mulched around some of the ferns, and they’re rewarding me with some new tentacle-like growth

Hello! And a massive welcome to this week’s #GardensHour Who’s here? Give us a wave! 👋 What have you been up to in the garden lately? What’s bringing you joy in your garden right now?

One of the biggest gardening challenges is staying patient. So very nearly there with the tulips #GardensHour

@GardensHour Evening #GardensHour I think in general changing weather patterns, at least in the UK, are becoming a big challenge. Drier & hotter Summers, & milder but wetter Winters are hard on plants and Gardeners!

Hello and welcome to #GardensHour! This week, let’s chat about some of the challenges we’ve faced in our gardening journey, and how we overcame them. It could really help another gardener in the community, as we share our stories. General gardening posts welcome as always!

@GardensHour I was at my Mum’s & things got knocked about & blown over but nothing catastrophic thankfully. Down here in Bucks it seems to have been better #GardensHour

@PygmyCreative Did you suffer much damage? It didn’t really hit down here, but we had more than our fair share of storms over winter! #GardensHour

Hello! A huge welcome to #GardensHour and also to APRIL in our gardens. What does April mean for you in your garden this year? What’s working? What’s not? Trying anything new? What are you most looking forward to?

@GardensHour Good evening #GardensHour the sowing continues apace and the first tomato seedlings have poked their heads up. These are Red Cherry and Sun Baby

Hello and a warm welcome to #GardensHour! We blinked and March is almost over! What have been your highlights this past month? Do you have any progress pics to share? What was new for you in March? What are you pleased to leave behind this time of year? What will you miss?

@Maro2Bear Thank you Mark

@PygmyCreative @GardensHour Nice snap

Hello and welcome to #GardensHour! How are you? What have you been up to in the garden this week? What’s blooming? For a fun side theme, show us your pots and planters! Store bought or hand built, standard or quirky, large or small… let’s see them!

@Sam_SSSLearning Very smart! #GardensHour

This week I’ve been giving the outdoor seating in the lower garden a coat of paint, ready for summer sunshine (hopefully) #GardensHour

@GardensHour Evening #GardensHour the Fritillaria Imperialis ‘Red Beauty’ is out at the moment
