More bulbs? Bugger!

If you are in the USA & you want fabulous cabbages, plant them on St Patrick's Day, before dawn ... in your nightwear.🫣

Fancy a bit of swanning around with me? My Gardeners World feature at Plas Brondanw, North Wales will be airing again tomorrow at 8pm on BBC 2. The Italianate gardens were created by Clough Williams Ellis (1883-1978), & masterminded the fabulous Italian inspired Portmerion Village.
