This February has continued the theme of the winter, with long spells of frozen ground, and occasional snow. Even the bergenia has been seen lying flat and apparently lifeless. However the wonderful hellebore from Ashworth nurseries is getting stronger every winter.
One or two days have been kinder. February always comes up with a pet day or two. We have been out on the drive cutting down overhanging branches and removing trees to give a bit more light and air to the roses. And to avoid complaints from the drivers of delivery lorries. It has taken some hardening of heart to cut down trees planted as babies 20 years ago.
