We have had nothing but rain since noon. Yesterday was soooo sunny and I thought today was supposed to be the same.

Was raining heavily overnight & still raining (not so heavy) this morning but appears to have stopped now but not sure how long for.
The garden is flourishing, everything is green (well except the forsythia - a mass of yellow- & the magnolia - a mass of white with pink) & even got the odd rosebud out!!! Don't usual get roses until late April/May. The first one is usually a climber on a north facing wall called Maigold. Haven't checked that side of the house yet!
Trouble is the lawns ae growing (too) well but can't get them mown as they are too wet, the dry days do dry them but then the rain comes before I can mow them!!!!

I will check mine. I'm disappointed that I lost all of my potted tulips from last year. Lupins and foxgloves are growing really well though. I grew both from seed last year, so I'm looking forward to them flowering. I've bought a lovely outdoor stone pot for my next door neighbour's birthday (19th) and I'm filling it with foxgloves because they are her favourite flowers. Some of the plants in the greenhouse are about 6 inches tall, so won't take too long to grow and flower.

Checked the Maigold & no sign of roses on it yet which is not a surprise. The rosebuds on the other roses may not, of course, survive & bloom they are still quite small. Sounds a lovely present for your neighbour lotsofcats

Thanks tonib and lotsofcats Had fun looking even if I failed to find any. The Ranger was kind to let me tag along as technically it was to train local monitoring group and not me! I would feel ok to go out and do that on own now, cant say same about bee transects which I am taking plunge on next month!
