The Gardens of Delargo Towers - February


Well me dears me birthday has been and gone and St David's day is just around the corner so what better to kick of our tour of the grounds than the daffs.



I think this years daffs are actually better than last year The little violas' are still doing their bit to add colour.




As is the self seeded Virginia stock growing in the paving. We are not even sowing this years seeds till next month.


anemone, iris, tulip, lupin and oxalis.


osteospermum is still flowering too.



In fact all the plants over wintering in pots are thinking about starting into growth.




We had a bit of a disaster with the plastic green house. It blew over upside down in on one of the stormy days we have had. but most of the cuttings were rescued.


The sweet peas and cosmos were sown indoors at the start of the month and are now ready to harden off and it will soon be time to sow the next batch of seeds




So till then.


TTFN
