    Many Thanks

    Dahlias are about as hardy as potatoes or tomatoes and are quite frost and cold prone!

            The dwarf tulips are in flower here in Bucks, but all my others are only leaves at the mo. Got a few daffs and crocus. Hyacinths also coming up and nearly out. Does that help?

              All my hyacinths are in bloom. My daffs have been in bloom for the past few weeks and the blossom on my plum tree is starting to open as well.

              And when your back stops aching,
              And your hands begin to harden.
              You will find yourself a partner,
              In the glory of the garden.
