It’s been a minute….
…the past few months have been hectic but also seem to have flown by. It doesn’t feel like it’s been 4/5 months since I last posted on here but that’s what it says! So what have I been up to? Well I’ve moved houses with all the various issues and activities surrounding that – from […]
…and I can’t wait! Shops are starting to bring out their bulbs and seedlings and I’ve picked up a couple: some tulips and some hyacinth bulbs. Me and my mum have also bought some Giant Tree Lily bulbs, which I planted a couple of weeks ago and I’m looking forward to seeing how they develop. […]
I’m back! I had a unplanned break because life got very busy so things I enjoyed doing (like this blog) took a back seat. But yes I’m now back like I never left and have lots of things to update on. I got a whole range of new plant cuttings from my mum, I’ve learnt […]

It sure is getting cold out here…..Happy 1st of the month! We are definitely getting into autumn now, aren’t we? And I am starting to think about winter preparations for my family of plants. My plant collection has expanded quite a bit since last winter, I think at least by half as much. Unsurprisingly, most of […]
I think my plants know I am blogging about them and taking pictures. No, seriously hear me out. I feel that they have got extra shiny and pushing out more leaves as if they know they need to put their best ‘face’ forward for the blog (and the ‘gram). Of course, it may just be […]
I’ve started waking up early in the mornings (yes 7am is early for me….). Since lockdown, I’ve been taking advantage of not having to wake up early to commute, but that has meant I’ve been starting my days from a standing start. Because my life is so hectic at the moment, I find waking up […]
