March already

I gave a talk on the Park at Wardie Church Guild on Wednesday.  Everyone was very nice and Justin set up the projector, avoiding my blushes! I therefore had a day off gardening but the Friends and Julie more than made up for my absence by getting loads done in the east border.

The park is looking good. The daffodils are shooting up and there’s plenty colour.  We even had a visit from a pheasant on Friday.

If you look hard, you can see the pheasant

Almost like spring

It was warm in the park this morning, some volunteers were even working without jackets!

We continued the weeding marathon, herbaceous borders today, and started on edging the grass beside the paths.  There’s lots of growth and colour, with even the odd rose flowering.  Things are looking good for the summer.
