I just love all these pictures for this time of year! We did have a little dusting of snow here in Kent but not enough to boast about really

Beautiful ladybird, where do you live (roughly)?

These are wonderful! It is so grey here at the moment most certainly not worthy of taking any pictures sadly!

Not inspiring pictures I know, but we don't get snow very often and these are the views from my front door, and back door, first thing this morning. From conservatory door, showing the chicken run, chickens are hiding!! From front door

We have been out in the garden (after the snow happened) it was only around for a couple of hours then the rain washed it all away Very excited about this year, we have plans on what we are getting for our tomatoes, pots and we are going to buy a new rose as well! Nothing really to share picture wise at the moment, but hopefully when the weather turns a little on the sunnier side

We didn't have any snow, although my phone app kept showing the snow symbol.
I don't mind looking at it, but hate trying to be out in it, especially when icy, but it is lovely in pictures.
I need to go to the garden centre when I can, most of my plants have survived, but two are a bit dead. It also looks like something dug the earth out of the planters..
Last year the weather was lovely early, so here's hoping for this year, which is not that long off really :-)

Well because of lockdown and what happened to us trying to get tomato plants last year I have bitten the bullet and pre-ordered ours today! I have also ordered a chive plant too. And some pot feet or risers for our existing ceraminc pots too. Am going to plant up our large blue pot with some nasturtiums...oh I just can't wait!!!

Well my pot feet or risers came yesterday and as it was a sunny day today, I have been out and re arranged our little planting shelf to prepare for this spring and summer! The green pot on the far left will have Chives in this year, and the two small pots that have what like like dead plants in are in fact Devonshire Dumpling fuscia plants. Will show a picture of what they looked like last year so you can see: This morning:
Last year: As you can see from the above picture we used stones to raise our pots as we couldn't go and get some from a garden centre so I wanted to make sure I had some this year and managed to get them online. Roll on spring!!! (does a jiggy sort of grandad type dance) lol!
