We are very fortunate to live in a very green country, people from overseas travel to visit this island just to enjoy our green vistas and as a resident I can appreciate what they see when the end of April approaches and we start to see that lovely fresh green of this year's new growth, add some sunshine and it is the perfect antidote to a long and very wet winter. In the churchyard the fresh greenery is punctuated by lovely highlights of primulas, hellibores and assorted other spring plants. The Wallflowers are a real statement of colour on the corner near the West Door and considering the wet weather we have lost relatively very few, interestingly we put three varieties in and I think it is one variety that has suffered. Gardening, the constant learning curve.
