Sadly itβs already becoming time to dead-head the daffodils βΉοΈ
Dead-heading your bulbs ensures they focus all their energy back into their bulb so that they produce flowers again next year.

"I LOVE Hairy-footed Flower Bees. For me, they are the furry heralds of spring. Here are the results of a happy hour watching several males buzzing around the Pulmonaria flowers at the allotment yesterday."

Just in bloom but struggling in the wind.
I always call this Senna, but donβt quote me. #Bloomscrolling #blossom #flowers
Favorite hybridizers: Ferdinand Cayeux. 'Geneviève Serouge' from 1932. I got this in error in a trade many years ago and fell in love. I have grown it ever since. Sublimely beautiful. A nice color blend that is heavily diamond dusted and sparkles like crazy. Great grower and bloomer too.

#InsertThursday I have no idea if this is a bee fly or a honey bee? My other half is getting me a pocket book of UK bees so I can attempt to identify them!!

And I am ashamed of having forgotten to mention the blue anemone hepatica [Hepatica nobilis] as occupants of a winter corner, last week. They should on no account be omitted. #gardening

I've just had an amazing idea
What Reform and the Conservatives won't say about expanding North Sea oil and gas: it won't make bills in the UK a penny cheaper!
A diverse mix of UK-produced green energy is how we lower people's bills and provide the true energy security we need.

π±good morningπ
A field of bright yellow daffodils in full bloom under a clear blue sky, with tall trees in the background. The flowers are vibrant and numerous, creating a cheerful scene on a sunny day.
π Sharing a burst of colour from a sunnier spring day. Which certainly isn't the case today!

Very βΉοΈ
A scarecrow wearing a brown jacket and flat cap, they have a smiley face. They are in a walled garden, set on a crate by some daffodils. Behind we can see blossom blooming and two visitors walking by.
Happiness is sitting in a garden on a sunny day surrounded by flowers.
And not having any allergies.
