Not bad work if you can get it! Miles Hank,

Happily. Sigh...guess I will have to go gather some wild fennel now...

Good luck with it Miles Cid,

All the border plants that looked so green a month or so ago have now wilted and died off after the frosts. I hear bad weather may be coming back so despite wanting to leap forth and do great things in the garden, I must steady up for a few weeks. After that I predict a garden that will look like a George Clooney of the horticultural world.... mature and utterly scrumptious :) Cid Miles,

I had not herd of wild leeks before. Do they resemble the cultivars? Where may they be found? Great to see everything sprouting in the gardens now. As the birds are selecting the humble Nean garden for their new nesting site, our spirits are lifted no ends :) All harbingers of Spring! Elsie Miles,
