Long trip home

It took us four days to get back, thanks to the volanic ash.  Sailing up the Adriatic past the Greek islands was not at all bad

As soon as we got back, it was Treborth early plant sale and all the veg seedlings that Corbie raised had to be ferried to Treborth, labelled and priced. it was all very worth while as we made £1300 (net).


It has been cold but dry here at SG for the last three weeks. It rained a bit for the first time in ages today. The grass was cut for the first time and weeding is a top priority (hairy rock cress is the worst at this time), followed by seeding dandelions. The Camellia "Magnoliflora" was frosted while we were gone.  We don't have long to go before we have the garden open to the Friends of Treboth Botanic Gardens at the end of May.  I wonder if the primroses and bluebells will last until then.
