We learn, today, from the trusty statisticians at the National Trust that 1/3 as many plants are in bloom now as there were in 2008 across NT gardens in Devon and Cornwall. Quite what this tells us about Climate Change I'm yet to understand precisely, other than that the increasing uncertainty of climate continues.
So, are the gardens at Iford as late as the far South West? Initially it would seem that we're somewhat behind the usual Springtime; the snowdrops are still in full swing, with many still in bud, and the aconites are trying their best to brighten up the duller corners on the drive and above the great terrace. We'll keep you posted.
Hopefully some photographs will appear here when the sun comes out!
