It’s that time of year again #GardeningTwitter #GardeningX #GardenersWorld

Morning all. Cold, wet & windy today but hoping it improves later. Looking forward to Sofa Singers this morning, we’re singing the Beatles song Across the universe. With all that’s going on in the world seems timely. Have a super day everyone 😊

@pvt_ak Wow that's interesting, might giive it a go as my last outdoor crop was a bit disappointing.

The garlic in tubs inside the tunnel experiment is looking good. So much stronger compared to the outside batches . #garlic

@mycathardy I've got lots popping up this year, not flowering yet though

I grew white honesty in the garden from seeds. Initially, I was disappointed it wasn't pink but it does look fresh and bright. There's quite a few of them now. #plants #garden

Just realised I have 340 photos of bees on my phone 😂

I love this little row of daffodils outside the greenhouse. Close ups to follow.

Got some sowing done today, chard, spinach, broad beans & peas. They’re tucked up for the night now under a layer of recycled packaging.

Spotted this lovely with its mate bustling around in the rhododendrons at the bottom of the garden. Suspect they might be nest building.

@keith_campion Once at a school where one of the arriving inspectors was hit by a car in the car park & taken to hospital (he was ok). They had a replacement inspector at school in 2 hours.

I’ve had a perfect storm for a teacher today - Ofsted, wet play and wasp in classroom!

@aNorthernGarden Oh that is lovely, so delicate.

Good morning gardening Tweeps. The lovely Primula belarina Pink Champagne is beginning its annual display.

@JohnDonoghue64 I have the same problem with my lab Ted. He has no idea of spatial awareness either & insists on trying to sit on my knee.

Monty, don’t get me wrong, it’s lovely when you lean on me… I feel like we’re bonding… but your elbows aren’t half boney! 🐾

@confusionrains Gorgeous plants. I've just added some different varieties to the woodland area.

No spots on the green leaves of this sparkling blue Pulmonaria angustifolia..

Afternoon all. Mixed weather again today but it’s sunny for now. I’m hoping it encourages these tulips to fully open. Greenhouse watering completed so hopefully I can get some outdoor tasks done. (Cue rain 😂). Have a super day everyone 😊

@finlayson_vera Yes

@Sam_SSSLearning Is that Lungwort?

Planted these beautiful pulmonaria plants, fabulous for shady areas. Varieties Raspberry Splash, Angustifolia Opal & Blue Ensign.

@PotteringPolly Same here, my poor camellias took a hammering weather-wise today.

Last week, warm sunshine! Today, I’ve been sleeted on, hailed on, nearly blown inside out then had to squint driving home as the sun was so bright! 💦💨❄️☀️ And all just as the tulips are starting to come out. Typical! 🌷 #BritishWeather #tulips #weather
