Really happy that the spring has brought out tons of weeds in the garden. I haven't been on a 'weed walk' for a few years and long may it continue as I'm unable to go searching too far!

On the menu today:



Cat's Ear, Smooth and Prickly Sowthistle, Nipplewort, White Clover, Ribwort Plantain, Wild Geranium, Dandelion and Campanula (which I picked after the photo and was too busy to do another one with it in!)

The Poached Egg plant is going to be in flower very soon. It has got huge.





Last year at the start of its short season of flowering. It produces masses of flowers but they don't last for long.



The weed patch



The Lavatera and Evening Primrose seeds have been sown today and the Buddleia is looking promising for another good show this year and something else usually pops up to surprise me. The Lavatera just kept producing more and more flowers for weeks on end last summer so hoping for more of the same this year.







Little glimpse into my torties life of pampering.
