Six on Saturday – 18th April 2020

10 Replies

Another six on Saturday. Again the garden is a great haven during lock-down. No shortage of jobs to do.

1. So first I did some work on a very neglected flower bed. I have some plants that I over wintered in the greenhouse, like lupins, which I will pop in here over the next day or two.

2. Blackthorn flowering in the hedge. This was taken yesterday when we had some glorious sunshine.

  • Whitethorn

3. Cherry blossom – it’s got a bit burnt with frost, but the bees are enjoying it.

  • Cherry with bumblebee

4. Tulips – some new ones just about to open.

  • Tulips

5. Another bee – this time the Common carder bee (bit blurred) on kale flowers. I always leave some of the ragged jack kale to flower as the bees always enjoy it.

6. Disturbed this little fellow while digging.

  • Frog

Thank you to The Propagator for hosting Six on Saturday.

      Thank you Amy. Poor frog, I disturbed while clearing weeds but he was kind enough to hang around for photo (using phone)
