West Leas garden in April

Wednesday 4 April, 2018

Another month has flown by, and what a wild month March has been. We don't know whether we're coming or going, so it's nice to look back at pictures from the garden at West Leas, when April was actually spring and didn't snow!

We are aching to get back out to tend our gardens, anyone else getting snow cabin fever?

Along the blushing Borders, bright with Dew,
And in yon mingled Wilderness of Flowers,
Fair-handed Spring unbosoms every Grace:
Throws out the Snow-drop, and the Crocus first;
The Daisy, Primrose, Violet darkly blue,
