Don't have any Kazz! I've planted up my narcissus for the Spring though and still have 4 different types of tulips to plant up. Have to say that I love those winter cyclamen. They have got loads at the farm shop - I could plant up a couple of pots with those.

These pansies were planted about six weeks ago but have become slightly bedraggled with all the wet weather lately........ and are in desperate need of a spot of de-heading!

Too lazy for baskets plus no sunny aspects. . . But am planting masses of new daffodils and narcissus in the front garden ready for spring :-)

Regretfully, I didn't do bulbs this year; got discouraged. I put in a dozen camassias last year, the squirrel got most of them, I did replant the ones that he'd dug up and left, but they were a bit scraggly after being uprooted, only had three... :(
