As we all keep on hearing about the mild weather these last few weeks it really has confused Mother Nature. It is however, as I write this blog, good to note that we had a decent frost this morning which is good as a spell of cold weather kills off pests and diseases that lay about in the garden within the debris of last years growth.
We have managed to pick a number of early flowering Rynveld Sensation which this year have grown before our snowdrops but this is probably as they are in a much more sheltered position. We have also noticed that one of our more interesting plants, the Drancunculus has poked its head well above the soil but to protect it from todays and future frosts, we have covered it with mulch.
