Late afternoon sun shining through the blue-purple flowers of Centaurea montana, with Aquilegia bobbing in the breeze to the left. I love May, seeing the perennials return and flower to their hearts content! 🌱🌺 #lovespring #gardening #hardyperennials

It's been a bit chilly here but the sun's out today and the sky is looking more blue than covered by cloud 🙂🌤️. It's all go in the garden at the moment with plenty of potting-on and hardening plants off - Patch's old rabbit run is proving perfect for this! I'm not weeding out dandelions this year, and am even appreciating our ever-vigorous Spanish bluebells. #gardening #WeedsAreFlowersToo #propagation #lovespring

I’ve just come home after a short stroll in the woods. Look at that fresh green of the wood sorrel after the rain. #lovespring

Cold frame is filling up 😬 I really tried not to sow too many seeds this year, must try harder next year! 😍🌱 #lovespring #seedlings #gardening

Narcissus 'Erlicheer' is now flowering away! 😍 So pretty! And one 'Actaea' is out so far. We have more perennials emerging, two of which I'd thought hadn't survived the cold snap in December, and was really wishing I'd overwintered them under cover. I'm thrilled to see their leaves this week! One of those days when I'm blown away by the hardiness of plants! 🌼🌸

Seeing as this morning is a rainy one I thought I'd post photos of yesterday's walk in the gorgeous spring sunshine. Finally got a photo of a favourite oak tree, spotted crowds of celandines along the edge of the wood, and some beautiful Salix catkins bursting from their buds. #springflowers #wildflowers #lovespring

Love seedlings! 😍 Mostly annuals, but some perennials too this year. #lovespring

When you pop outside to hang up the washing, and end up pulling up perennial weeds and photographing plants 😂🌸💕. It doesn't look like much, and it's all a work in progress, but this was originally a mass of brambles, and I'm just so happy right now to see these little guys, back for another year and flowering their socks off! #lovespring #hardyperennials

When I was walking my dog this morning... I heard several woodpeckers drumming on trees... All trying to find new love.
They are among the first bird's to find a partner for the nesting season in Spring.... Which made me realize that.. Spring is so close already... Yeeeeejjj....then we get to make pictures like this one of a #BlackWoodpecker again. #LoveSpring
