The Rhubarb evidently loves its new home in the deep pot.
However, even though this will require considerable restraint, I don't think I'm going to pick any leaves this year, because I want it to build up its strength
There are some flowers on my little "Bramley" apple tree, planted last year. I'll be surprised if they set any fruit though.
Maybe I'll get one or two pears...
This is (was) my first spear of Asparagus of the year - although there are actually lots coming up now.
I think I had better remove the chicken-wire that I put over it to stop the Blackbirds kicking-off all the compost...
All around my little micro-pond the Lily of the Valley is shooting up rapidly.
The young shoots look a little bit like asparagus, don't they?
I have been busy pricking-out the Leeks and the "De Ciccio" Broccoli.

The broccoli still seems quite frail. Nowhere near as robust as the Brussels Sprouts I sowed at the same time.

Although I would like to get some things planted out, at present I am keeping all my brassica seedlings inside the mini-greenhouses in order to protect them. As I write this the wind is blowing at nearly gale force, and I think it could do some serious damage to delicate little seedlings.
