Snowdrops

One of the best thing about this time of year is snowdrops, their beautiful white flowers reminds me of the song Heidi keeps singing, snow drops is falling on my head! If you have never been to Haddon Hall to look at the snowdrops, it is worth visiting at this time of year.










We did a lot of work on Heidi's plot trying to get rid of bindweed (horrible stuff), I'll try to get some picture of the bindweed root next time so those who don't know what it looks like might be able to better identify it. We found lots of lovely earth worms while digging (yummy!).
I am going to experiment with putting my potatoes out at the beginning of March this year and see how well they do, I've been warned about late frost (even as late as May and June) killing them but I think I will give it a try and see what happens.
