Neighbours talking over the garden gate has long been a tradition. They share gardening tips, complain about the weather and pests yet are ever eager to discuss their gardens. That is what I had in mind when creating this blog. So stop by my garden gate to find out the latest happenings in my garden.

Happy Gardening!

Crocuses

Crocuses
March 19, 2010

A few days ago the weather was so gorgeous I took a walk around the yards just simply enjoying the beautiful sunshine. Tucked into the corner of a rock bed we had intended removing I spotted this pretty clump of purple crocuses. They weren't there last year so the squirrels must have been busy moving a few of the bulbs around. Crocuses are one of spring's colourful delights!

Happy Gardening!

  2. We have quite a few yellow crocuses in the garden, but none purple. I notice the neighbours have plenty of purple :-( Hmmmm...

    I'll try to get a decent photo. (of our's, not the neighbour's!)
