Once again Spring comes round.  We NEVER thought it could happen after all this rain but the smallest ray of sunshine has started the buds opening and the ground giving way to tiny shoots pushing through.. nature doesn’t give up.  At this time of the year some of the most unassuming plants suddenly take centre stage such as Mahonia and Chaenomeles – the daffodils haven’t really arrived yet to outclass them so enjoy these lovely flowers while you can.
