Pruned my roses and there's lots of buds. Start of new growth on my herbs which looked dead all winter. And my planter of tulips has some green shoots coming up. It being fairly light at 4pm is great too for powering on for the end of the work day.
Ooh is it time to prune roses? I always thought a bit later?

The daffodils have started shooting up in the garden 😁 I’m sure last year they never bloomed and I’m not sure why so let’s hope this year 🌻 Going to start working on my Spring print to put in a frame this week, if it goes well I’ll show you 😂 and my husband surprised me with an orchid yesterday because he noticed I’d thrown my old flowers in the bin!! 😮🥰

I've got climbing roses and I noticed a few stems were crossing over. With stormy weather in Jan/Feb the stems can rub and cause weak points, so I've thinned them out. And took off all old heads and rosehips, leaves with black spot. As they're climbers I don't cut them right back, just a bit of maintenance to keep them healthy.

I love the fact Easter is later this year, I feel like we’ll get to enjoy the run up to it and Spring in general a bit more 🌸🌺 Although that also means Pancake Day is ages away 🤣

I've already started putting my non-obviously Easter stuff out. :ROFLMAO:
My Easter/Spring wreath is already on the door 😂 I was walking the dog around the lake at the weekend and it was so bright and sunny and felt like Spring, it was a beautiful day. The weather affects my mood so much it’s unbelievable lol 🌤

Me too!!! I’m so much happier when I see the sun shining away in a beautiful blue sky. Nothing better to lift the spirits. And I feel like I can smell that gorgeous waft of spring in the air too! X

Went for a walk about 4 - haven't been able to do that for a while! It was still bright and the birds were singing 😊

I’ve got a small planter with a trellis that I had sunflowers in last year. I’ve bought some snapdragons to plant as they’re one of the more dog safe plants apparently! I was going to risk planting them straight outside but think pots indoors might be safer in case we get any more frost 😬🪴🪻

London and the home counties are going to be around 13/14c and sunny this Friday. Almost ideal temp and weather for me.

Saw some really cute bunny and lamb tat in tk maxx / home sense today. Could I justify spending ten pounds on a cute lamb ornament wearing a pink bonnet hat? Not today no but I will at the weekend!
They also had a bunny wearing a yellow raincoat and boots with an umbrella 😭
