Musings from the Merse
Saturday, March 14, 2009
A week to go the official opening of Spring and the first daffs we have seen around here are in the most sheltered part of the garden in the Small House in Duns. Soon the whole county will be lousy with them-no more so than in Hutton in the road down to the Kirk. Visual pollution at its most powerful-until the Rape ripens
Sadly I have free cycled my scythe
The snowdrops are well past their prime and heads hanging in shame for still being around.

I'd sooner have daffs than oil seed rape any day. Wales was covered in them last week and very nice they looked, too. I also like narcissi, croci and scilli. O, scilli me, must be spring fever.
Does one assume tongue firmly in cheek for that posting?
Got a lovely pot of miniature ones from M&S reduced over a month ago, but pot dried out because it had rolled out of shopping bag. Watered it anyway and it has been flowering its socks off.

I really do get fed up by the huge number of daffs everywhere you look in the Borders and they go on and on and on
