I have just been for a stroll round my garden whilst waiting for curry to cook, and am totally amazed that that the trailing petunia"s seem to be making new growth and are on the verge of flowering.

Suppose it must have been the very mild Winter we had !

Any way I am pleased !

Yes. I think a lot of plants would just go on flowering all year if there were no frosts.

Get yer slug pellets out.

We are amazed that we too have several plant varieties doing very well, because of the warm winter, unbelievably flowering already.

Never have we had geraniums go through the winter outside in the garden and in planters.

Hoora, hopefully it will save me pounds this year. We live in the midlands by the way.

I was just thinking how weird it is that last year's geraniums are blooming alongside the daffodils and tulips.
