The Garden in March

 

The daffodils have been wonderful this year. At the beginning of February the buds had appeared and by the middle of the month they were flowering. And only now, towards the end of March are some beginning to fade and need to be dead headed.

There are some late flowering narcissi that are just beginning to flower. 

The primroses are at their best this time of year.

The white hyacinth have just come into flower.

The Weigelia has sprouted most of it's leaves and is covered in tiny flower buds. Behind it the dwarf crab apple also has the first of it's leaves and in the distance is the Forsythia. 

The Viburnum is still in flower and although some are beginning to fade, there are others to replace them.

I thought I had lost all my snake head fritillary, but here is one survivor. 

And finally, the main border is beginning to wake up.
