EASTER DAY FLOWER COUNT

Gardengirl..Gardengirl.. Posts: 4,172

Hello all

Thought it would be nice if we went around counting the flowers out in your gardens - the different types like violas and numbers say a tulip

This is where you get a chance to see what is in flower, look around and appreciate them all 

You can upload pics if want

SO READY STEADY............ GO COUNT YOUR FLOWERS

    Verdun I've always thought that it would be a good idea to have a pivot in the middle of the country so that on alternate years we could share each other's weather.  Then I thought that would be a shame for the midlandersimage.

    Lovely pictures Gardengirl, all I have in flower now the snowdrops have finished is some red dead-nettles in the wildlife garden. image

  • What beautiful colours on that wallflowerimage

    I counted 23 different flowering things - surprised myself - I wouldnt have guessed that many although that included a few pretty weeds...

    Lovely day here in NE England, saw my first wasp, goldfinch, frog and butterfly (Tortie) of the year too - old news I guess to many of you but it was great to seeimageimageimage

    I was amazed about the amount of flowers out more than I thought,  I ended up seeing things that you not quite noticed before like the forget me nots and tulip only opened today and I also saw a ladybird lots of bees and hover flies
