The 'Delargo Towers' Garden - December

The end of another month and another year.

The equinox has past bringing with it the beginning of the end of winter.

The violas and pansies have just started to take off and are looking fab,

We have had a few frosts this month and with Jan and Feb to come I am sure we will get a few more.

Its so far so good with the Nicotiana.

Both the aserinas and the scented  leafed pelargonium seem perfectly happy.

We have started sowing seeds and putting the greenhouse to use.

Calendula, Salvia and Penstemon.

We loved the Agastache we grew from seed last year and hope to get it through the winter

My nephew's first ever cutting is doing well too.

This was our first year growing dahlias and they proved to be a real joy. 

Grown from seed, and with the move left in pots and sadly neglected,

 they have still produced a bumper crop of tubers.

All the ' Bishops Children ' have been wrapped up and put to bed.

Bulbs are sprouting and the bluebells rescued from the old garden are starting to show through.

Osteospermum -

Ragged, yes, but still doing their best to give a little colour.

All in all Doncaster Donny seems quite pleased.

There tiz then, me lovelies

Till next year.
