The green and rolling countryside of Worcestershire, England, is home to the cider apple orchards which surround the gardens of Pear Tree Cottage. They enjoy a sunny south westerly aspect with sweeping views across to Martley Hillside, Woodbury and Abberley clock tower. The Teme Valley lies just over the hill and, not far away, is the Herefordshire border. Although our climate is temperate, our seasons are often uncertain and always a challenge to a gardener! This began in 2010 & follows the weekly ups and downs of garden work chronicling both successes and failures but, above all, demonstrates the fun enjoyed by three people who regularly garden in all weathers

HOPE!

 Well, we're into March and the garden is looking springlike and the birds are singing their little hearts out!  I managed to start all 3 mowers after a winter of inactivity.  This meant all areas of grass enjoyed their first and second mow of the season and even the edges were trimmed.  The greenhouse has also had attention and I made a start of glass cleaning!  We've had 2 glorious sunny springlike days, narcissus have taken over from the snowdrops,  The Camellias are blooming and the Magnolia is showing colour.  Hope abounds!


I have to share this as I used A.I. to write a garden description PTC Garden courtesy of Gemini A.I.  I'm thinking of visiting!!
