Signs of Life - What a Great Feeling

Made one of our regular family trips to Wakehurst Place on Sunday (if you haven't been, great place, Kew's place in Sussex - really good value, great walks and wonderful trees, plus some wonderful Himalayan planting). It was such a relief to see the first signs of life after nearly four depressing weeks of everything being under a heavy blanket of snow - yes I know it looked wornderful and the kids love it but it does limit what you can do in the garden!

So, look out for some real progress by next week, meanwhile, a couple of pictures filled with optimism!
