Good morning - overcast again. 8 to 12 and all overcast. Not nice. I don't mind if it rains properly. Droughty Essex could do with a bit of rain.

How depressing is that? Raining all the time in winter in NE, @Zenji ?

We have had rain, but only a bit. At least my plants are not shivering. I saw 4 more new buds on my alstroemeria.. Very pleased. I will protect them whenever we have visitor from the arctic .. and upload photos when my buds unfold ..

Hope you're not cocooned in your house, zenji! But need to keep an eye on builders.. I had a jewellery box and a brand new bottle of Clinique Elixir stolen, probably by the educated engineer who installed the gas meter!

@Verdun It seems to me you have a perfect garden, but you're expecting an order every week! Ah :eek::eek::eek:, where are you going to put them? If you have trouble finding spaces, you can have my address for delivery! :ROFLMAO:;)

Ha ha alp. Its a great time of year for buying perennials. Potted up they will still make root growth and come spring they will be in vigorous mode :)
Linaria Dial Park is one of my expected plants ;)
