It started with frost on the water.

But temperatures crept up to 12C by lunchtime

Another road walk for me this afternoon. Fresh air!

Beautiful blue all day.

Probably the excitement of the day will be the food delivery, but before that there was a chance to walk around the garden.

The primroses took a battering during the snow and ice, but they are surviving. The daffodil stands proud waiting for St David’s day. The camellia is always stunning. It will last a while longer yet. As for the snowdrops – they just keep flowering. The Bergenia has begun – it will flower into the autumn as will the Pulmonaria. All the hyacinths are coming through but this pink one is already set to flower. And finally – the glossy leaved Mahonia will be presenting its yellow offerings before long too.
