  • My plum tree.

    My plum tree that I have in a half barrel in a south facing position is now full of white blossom. Surely a sign that the weather is warming up.
    The chestnut tree in the grounds behind our house has the first leaves opening.
    Encouraging signs.

    And when your back stops aching,
    And your hands begin to harden.
    You will find yourself a partner,
    In the glory of the garden.

    You're further ahead than here. However, the flower buds on the plum tree are swelling Hopefully in a few days they will open.

      The buds on all my fruit trees are coming on but nowhere near opening yet.

        The cherry has been in flower for a week or so - but nothing on the plums, apart from the ornamental one - and only a few blossoms as the bullfinches dine on it in January

          What's blossom? Not seen any of that round here this year

          Some of us live in the past, always talking about back then. Some of us live in the future, always planning what we are going to do. And, then there are those, who neither look behind or ahead, but just enjoy the moment of right now.

          Which one are you and is it how you want to be?

            Keep yer eye on the night temps Bramble & have fleece at hand. You could lose the lot overnight.

                Nothing on my plum tree, and it's only a hobbit sized thing. Can't remember if I had blossom on it this time last year. But I did end up with a handful of victoria plums.
