As I lounge in the lounge gazing out at the rain on an overcast Mid March day (it is after all St Patrick’s Day and it is traditional that he sheds a tear for Ireland), the highs of the past few sunny spring days that raised my spirits to an ecstatic high a distant memory, I remember why it is I love to plant my window boxes from scratch rather than buy ready grown ones. The sight of the partially emerged muscari amongst the narcissus pulled me right back to the reason why I love Spring, there is so much more to come and the rain…………….. well that’s the part that makes it all possible! Window boxes are a great way of bringing nature into your home and are great for the smallest of outside spaces.



All Hail Spring
