After the continual rain this last weekend, I decided that getting the crocosmia that have regrown near my favourite rose bush out was an opportunity I couldn’t miss.
Unfortunately, there are a few which are growing very close to the fir tee and digging them out would probably entail lifting the fennel as well. So, if I am to get them out, it will need to wait until the fennel goes in the herb garden I hope to establish in the spring.
On the other hand, I think I might have noticed something which may be a pleasant surprise on the other side of the tree.
I say ‘might’ because the green shoots could be something along the lines of Spanish bluebells, which like the apple tree think it is spring already (haven’t they noticed the December gloom?). On the other hand, I’m rather hoping they could be garlic which didn’t sprout last year.
Growing out of chaos 
Are you having an unusually warm December? We are here in Ontario Canada. It’s so warm today. It’s just nuts!!
Really, you too?
It’s nice that stuff is growing in some ways but if it is the sign of things to come, who knows what’s next! Still, enjoy it while it lasts….
I am enjoying it!! I usually do like snow, but the change and warmth is nice. no boots, no heavy coats… so nice!
That does sound a nice change 🙂
I see you had the same rainfall we had here huh! it hasn’t stopped raining ‘At all’ for two weeks straight now, some of us here are forgetting what sunlight looks like 🙂
Yes, it is getting difficult to picture the sun. Sorry you’ve had so much rain – hopefully it will clear up in time for Christmas!
Here’s hoping! preferably snow heh 🙂
Oh no 😉
Awwe come now, everyone appreciates lil snow 😉
Where I live, it’s a nightmare as we’re not geared up for it. Maybe if it just snowed on Christmas Day, that would be great 🙂
Exactly! the last white Xmas I saw was in 2008’ish, really miss it oof
We had one sometime recently but I can’t remember exactly when… I’ll keep my fingers crossed for you 🙂
Thank you! 🙏🙏😄
I love a garden mystery 🙂 I currently have my own pot of “mystery” bulbs I am waiting to be able to identify – keep us posted!
What do you think your bulbs might be?
Honestly haven’t got a clue! I can tell they’re not Tulips, Daffs, Iris or Crocus, possibly something less glamorous;)
We shall wait and see 🙂
Hopefully something more glamorous!
I live in hope!! I’m intrigued by your mystery find also, please keep us posted!
I will do!
Awesome update thank you for sharing have a blessed day
Have a good evening, Linda 🙂
Well Helen, that is a mystery, and maybe will be a nice surprise either way, I hope you discover soon. 🙂
Thank you, Agnes 🙂
Even though Florida is known for warm winters, today was one of many that broke a record at 85 degrees f. I hope you get your wish and the sprouts are the garlic.
That’s warm! Warmer than an average summer’s day here…
Thank you, anyway.
