It’s getting cold again. The latest forecast suggests it might get down to -5 between Tuesday and Wednesday. So much for the arrival of spring!
I was down at the allotment on Friday putting horticultural fleece back over the broad beans and other young plants I’d uncovered a week or two earlier. I’ll have to remember to get in the back garden tomorrow and use the rest to cover things like the camellia, which presently has lots of promising buds. It would be nice to see it come properly into flower rather than losing this year’s display.
