Violets in March

There are a couple of patches of violets growing in the lawn.



They're rather nice. Of course, for a real patch of violets, you have to got to the A143, just on the Haddiscoe side of Beccles:



They are part of a quite large bank, which looks quite elderly, the picture being taken under a fully mature Oak, so perhaps it's an edge of a piece of ancient woodland.



Of course the Lesser Celandines get a look in too:

Spring has arrived

February Snowdrops in snow

A bit late uploading this pic from the flurry of snow we had last week...

January Snowdrops

First few Snowdrops just coming out of bud in the garden



On Church Lane there is a decent patch in full flower

Blubell shoots

While deciding where to put the chicken fencing it became apparent that the woodland end of the garden is actually a Bluebell woodland patch. There are some snowdrops and crocuses too. Maybe the chickens can go round the apple trees...
