Just where do they all come from?  We spent so much time at the end of last year collecting leaves and now they appear to be everywhere again and in this wind it is such a pain chasing them all over the garden.  The Grape Hyacinth's that I planted under the new roses are all making an appearance, which I am delighted about and I spent a good deal of time yesterday tidying up the woodland garden ready for movement in that area.  Sounds quite ridiculous to say that I have been tidying a wood!  The Christmas Rose of which I have planted about twenty in this part of the garden are all in bud and those that were lifted and divided and moved last year are all looking very healthy which is a relief.  I never quite believe that I am not going to kill things off.
