Blossoms from the Manchurian pear and the first daffodil in the garden, have to be signs of spring approaching. Unfortunately the daffodil is surrounded by oxalis, which I have been pulling out.
The wallflower bush has been in the same spot for over seven years. I pruned it back last summer and they are back looking very cheerful. The azaleas and camellias are enjoying the rain and there are more buds appearing so I can be assured of flowers right up to late spring. As for the cyclamens, they have been looking after themselves, with a little help from some seaweed.
These orchids opened in July and I am tempted to look for different varieties to add to my small collection.
Two more limes ready to pick.
