Welcome back to this month’s Garden Year linky - if you were here last month, it was great to see you. If you’re joining for the first time, you’re very welcome. The linky will stay open for the whole month, so I hope you’ll pop back during the month. I’m looking forward to reading about your garden projects and garden visits.
Happy bank holiday, isn’t May great?! It’s been a slow start to gardening here this year which is mostly due to the weather - it hasn’t been the most inspiring, and it’s actually been cold, much colder than it should be at this time of year. For the first time in a couple of years though I have sown some seeds - I’m starting small with some sunflowers, but I’m hoping they’ll grow big and tall! Moving house really did mess with my growing my own, at first because I was hopeful and optimistic that it would happen quickly, and then more realistically about moving plants as they were growing as I wasn’t sure I wanted to leave them for the new owners!
I don’t have a greenhouse in this garden (yet), so that’s brought its own challenges especially with the temperatures I mentioned before. Anyway, I’m keen to read what you’ve been up to in your gardens, or the gardens you’ve visited so can’t wait to read the posts you link.
