Today has been mainly grey and chilly with some dampness over night but despite this, the feeling of spring is still very much with me. In the Magic Garden there are changes everyday as the perennial plants start putting on growth. Today I was pleased to see that the native hedging bareroot plants are beginning to show signs of coming into leaf as are most of the fruit bushes and the apple trees. The wee hydrangea plant looks happy too. Last year’s osteospermums are beginning to come into bloom too.
