Nice tubs George! I like the sound of gardening the easy way. They'll bring sunshine into your life whatever the weather

Hi. mrgluss. These tub's caught my eye in da toon one day, I put down lot's o red chip's to save me the bother o digging it over each year, but I missed da flower's, hence the tub's, my back is not so good these day's, even putting the soil in them was hurting, still that's it done, and looking forward to all of da flower's sprouting up..

They look delightful george. I do like that wooden tub with the french marigolds in it. It looks very well made. It will be great to see how they all get on too!

Well you've done a good job with your tubs George -I'm sure they will look lovely when they spread out. Take some pictures of them every couple of weeks so we can see them. Hope you put slug pellets down or beer so they don't get eaten

Great selection bramble. The pink ones are my favourite I think.....they look furry!! George.....you have a lot of colour in your garden already for the time o year. All I have so far are a few daffodils that are nearly past their best. I'd love to have a boanny garden, but I never seem to have the time.

Bramble and George - nice to see some colour after all this gloomy weather, you've both got some nice plants there. Am sure as the weeks progress more people will put pictures up here.
George is that Alchemilla mollis on the right of the red flower?

Beautiful plants from both george and Bramble. One question though....some of the plants (petunias and french marigolds) are a bit tender. I can't leave any tender stuff out for another month yet. Are you bringing them in at night?

Good Morning folks,
I have been up since 5 a.m. just prowling about the garden and enjoying all the lovely fresh green colours mixed with honesty, daffodils and some of the lime green grasses. It was very hard to come in last night and go to bed as everything is looking so good. On a morning like this it makes you glad to be alive.
