February’s weather can be fickle

Just when you think spring could be on it’s way, the winter let’s you know it hasn’t finished yet!

I have spent the last few days working on the garden, just a few hours per day, digging up all the wild garlic bulbs and wild leeks from the flower beds. That and getting rid of dead leaves and last years flower stems has made such a difference. You can see the daffodil, crocus and hyacinth flower heads coming through.

This morning, I woke to a sprinking of snow over the garden and my 2 crocus (or is it crocii) flowers are wondering what hit them. The wind is from the north to northeast so it is raw when outside.

Hopefully this will only last for a few days as we are going to the local chasse (hunters) dinner Saturday night, so we will be walking home and I prefer it not to be snowing when I do!
