Garden Snap Shots!

OH has taken his usual Salvia cuttings too HostaH, really worth it, they seem to do well.

Hi Brue, what Salvia plants do you have. I only found them last year through the lockdown what fantastic plants they are. All mine still in flower 💐 

We've got Amistad, and Hotlips same as you, also cherry lips and another pink one that does well, can't remember the name just now. Hope to get hold of a the cream coloured one too. 

Among others two nice ones African Sky a light blue and Lemon Light a nice yellowish lemon colour.

I watched Carole Klein on ch5 this week, she included Salvias in the programme. Interestingly we stayed at a CL called Uplands in Devon this year and it was just up the road from Glebe Cottage.

Bought this plant at a market stall , no label but I liked the size and shape. 

Wondered if anyone knows the name ?

Coreopsis?

Thanks for that Freddy ,I'll look it up .

On a daily walk on Friday we spotted a small clump of snowdrops in flower and a daffodil in full bloom , the birds seem to be more vocal too, maybe spring is on it's way.

Nothing in bloom here yet, not even hellebores, but things are growing. I am enjoying tidying our garden, and discovering what is coming back again. Far too mild for a true Yorkshire Winter though, it’s been 15-10 degrees these last three days, so some stuff is budding up way too early. I think it’s in for a shock this coming week, forecast I’d for much colder.

 Agree about the birds, lots of twittering here👍😁

More tulips, crocus and alliums planted today (a bit late, but the6 will come up). And a huge Amaryllis bulb potted up and now inside. Nice gift from a neighbour friend. Never grown one before.
