March came in like a lion and seems to be going out like a lion! While we have enjoyed some sunny Spring-like days, it has also been blustery and cold, some places have had rain, snow and hail to contend with. Despite the vagaries of our weather, tulips are in flower in the borders. I think these are all Brown Sugar from previous years and they do seem to be doing the best out of all the ones I have planted in the borders.
They have a very strong stem which helps.
They are also flowering in the north facing border too. As I mentioned previously, I think my tulips in pots will be disappointing this year, but at least I still have these to enjoy!
The Erythronium (Dog's Tooth Violet) Pagoda grows every year and the flowers will soon be open. This is a lovely, undemanding plant.
I also noticed the Epimedium Sulphureum flowering too with its delicate stems of yellow flowers.
Lots to bring me joy as we move into April.
