Happy St David's Day!

It's the first of the month!

As our Welsh members of the community celebrate St David's Day, I wonder, what has everyone got planned for the month?

I'm starting off my tomato seeds and osteospermum seeds today.  Over the course of the month sowing more types before the last frost day.  Roll on spring warmth, winter has been long enough now

Do you plant a lot @WelshBlue?

More than I should considering I haven't got a greenhouse.  

It's a moot point for a month and a half when seedlings take over the house.  From seed I grow all my own annuals/ bedding plants and perennials.  Also 4 different types of tomatoes, different lettuces, spring onions, cucumbers, courgettes and dwarf french beans.  All in about 250 + plants

It's something my doctor told me to get into for my mental health.  He was having a laugh ... it can get pretty stressful ... 

Funnily enough I don't grow daffodils ... the OCD part of me can't be doing with waiting for them to die back and the subsequent untidiness they bring

That sounds like an amazing haul! I have no green thumb whatsoever!

Technically I've only got the one now    

I rely on the help of others now.  Frustrating at times when I want things done there and then; but on the flip side I'm grateful for the help, which I'm lucky to have
