A chilly end to this week’s temperature brings a cold blast as February takes its leave. I have been planting more seeds and am running out of room in the conservatory, but I can’t help myself, I feel like a gardening addict!
However, the plants have not taken too much notice of the cold spell and are brightening up the garden. I am quite excited about the amount of colour that is dotted around.
Photo one shows some of the bright yellow Crocus that are popping up. In the second photo we have some mauve Polyanthus and in the third photo the Forsythia is just starting to flower in its quiet corner of the front garden.
These next three types of flower have all been featured in other weeks but these are all ‘different’ blooms. A lovely dark purple Crocus, more flowers on the Camellia and another gorgeous blue dwarf Iris.
Thank you for joining me for this #SixOnSaturday post. I hope that you enjoyed it. Jim is now our host for this gardening meme and you can find his blog here where you will be able to catch up with links from all the other folks who take part.
Happy gardening
Rosie

I know! Last week I planted the whole packet of Nasturtiums (as you do!) Had over 60% germination rate within 4 days! Oops – I have 60+ seedlings – Hmm!

The blue dwarf iris is magnificent. Mine are just beginning to emerge from the ground.

I’ve been running around taking photos of them all before they go over. I do like their colours.

Lovely, lovely colors! We are not allowed to plant perennials here (another dumb HOA rule) but we planted some daffodil bulbs in a raised box and they are coming up. Due to the recent warm spell (85 one day!), the pear trees are all in bloom (in Feb!).

A very colourful post Rosie. I do like the blue irises. I wish you success with the seeds! I won’t start anything until April unless it gets much warmer.

I am impatient for Spring and always start seeds early. Probably too early – what can I say I love growing plants!

When I tried in February, I wasn’t successful, too leggy and weak. Last year I tried again on late March / early April and had good germination and the stronger plants stood up to the S&S better.

I suppose dry weather for most of February has helped. Some of those lovely blooms would be destroyed by too much rain.
