Well we are at the end of another very bright and sunny day here in Westray, we have had quite a few bonny days. Who knows maybe spring is just around the corner, all in all we can't complain we haven't had too bad a winter so far. At the end of last summer I planted out six lavateria plants that I had grown from cuttings, I don't know why I didn't think of planting them out sooner (brains deteriorating maybe) Anyway they have survived so far and have even got lots of new foliage growing, I also planted 150 daffodil bulbs in between them, they are also poking up their little heads so I'm feeling pretty happy it will be lovely when they are all in flower. I've just ordered all my veggie seeds online as well so feeling very springy! Last year I used seeds that came in a paper tape, I would recommend them they worked out a treat. No fiddly little seeds to try and separate with my podgy fingers, just lay out the tape in your trench cover with soil and hey presto perfectly spaced veggies, so needless to say they are what I've ordered again.
