My feverish gardening activity is watched closely by the garden robin and I see the first butterflies of the summer.

Winter Protection
With winter now under way, I discuss winter protection for all those slightly tender plants both outside and in pots. Short winter days can also be put to good use preparing for next season. Good housekeeping whilst not always attractive in itself, will give you a head start in the New Year.
