Today I dug over the first of my two veggie patches and planted potatoes! I've got 5 short rows of 7 tubers. 14 Nicola, 14 Kestrel and 7 saved Charlottes that don't seem to want to chit but seem to be alive. There's space in the patch for some more veggies later on, probably salads.

   

Elsewhere, I tidied up the narrow bed beside the greenhouse and planted some Aquilegias that I sowed last summer. These are from a packet of mixed seeds, so I'm curious to see what sort of blend of colours appears in a month or two.

   

I tidied up the embryonic rose garden this afternoon, too. Now that I've cut back the hedges it was annoying me that the left edge of the bed wasn't straight, so I've now re-cut it so that it aligns with the edge of the greenhouse. I've interplanted the roses with spent crocus, snowdrops and tete-a-tete daffs.

   

A bunch of snowdrops in-the-green arrived in the post today, so I've planted out small clumps in between the roses in the front garden. It's a start, anyway.

   

The next jobs are to dig veggie patch 2 and to get the new lawn area ready for seeding. Let's hope for some reasonable spring weather as we approach the equinox.
