I’m amazed how productive that hedge is – it’s a living buffet for the birds!

  Yes it’s impressive isn’t it? I almost crashed the car when I saw it and then had to stop and get out and take photos! ☺

Self-seeded hellebores are still flowering their socks off & demanding low-level, close-up appreciation in the slivers of sunshine between showers... #wetknees

Quick survey: what would you call a narrow path between fences or houses, or with houses on one side and wilder land on the other? Where does your word come from?

The Ivel in full flow on this sunniest of mornings...

Growing season must be just around the corner now that my #peatfree @dalefootcomposts has arrived... 😊

Cambridge Botanic Garden winter garden - achingly beautiful in the early February sunshine.

Gardens, Weeds and Words

Wind and smoke February 23, 2020
I have an oddly conflicted relationship with the wind. At once stimulating, annoying and frightening, occasionally helpful and sometimes strangely comforting. We might learn that a body of air will move from an area of high pressure to an area of low pressure, but that’s hardly an explanation that satisfies our enquiry.
