Is it spring yet….

Not much has happened in the garden during February. It snowed a few times and the garden was covered in snow for most of the month.




It was also colder then usual, and I feared some casualties. But there was surprisingly little damage to deal with. The greenhouse came out of the cold unscathed (which is probably reflected in our electricity bill). And in the garden the only casualties were a couple of Hebe. While most are hardy, it seems there are a few varieties which are not, which is not always clear from their labels.


As soon as the snow subsided we resumed work on Vi’s garden, starting by digging the electricity trenches. So we have proper sockets in the greenhouse and by the new deck.
