The Garden in March

 

We can see the daffodils from the kitchen window, always a beautiful sight this time of year.

The forsythia has flowered again despite finding out that it's not in the right place. Full sun is, apparently, something to avoid.


Most of the crocuses have died off already, but this one is still hanging on.


The laurels at the far end have come into flower.

There are a few primroses that come up every year, these are just two.


So not a lot of colour at the moment, although there are plenty of shrubs and plants in bud. Which is always nice this time of year. Just like the iris in this pot.


What I did do this month that I have never done before is to prune the buddleia that appeared at the very end of the long border. We shall see what happens.



Over the last weekend of March I added four bags of compost to the main border. That is now I no longer make my own.



Last of all, the daffodils next to the hypericum.


And some nice hyacinths near the roses.
