Spring!

It really must be spring. There are lots of daffodils out as well as crocuses and various other things I don't know the names of!
The plot for the most part is still looking wintry though. Mr C, the babe and I spent a couple of hours at the plot on Saturday. JB and I were planning to do some digging yesterday too, but the weather was atrocious.
On Saturday we planted some more peas out, whether they will survive or get eaten or rot is anyones guess. I hoed a few beds and generally weeded a bit. The garlic is growing well, but the radishes are very slow to show. The sweet peas are beginning to germinate in the cold frame no idea when they should be planted.
I've ordered some onion sets from garden organic as well as tomato seeds, some wild flower mix (to go beside the pond) and some herb seeds because apart from the thyme the herbs aren't up to much.
Not quite sure where they are all going to go, really need to clear and prepare another seed bed so there is room.
