I’ve grown salad and spinach in the greenhouse this winter. I love being able to pop out there and grab a handful of leaves for a Saturday lunch. Yesterday, I happened to notice that something else was growing too. A cyclamen and it is in flower.
I do empty old pots of soil into the greenhouse, when I think the plant is dead. Seems I misjudged one of the cyclamens. It’s time was not up. Meaning I had a lovely Imbolc garden surprise yesterday. My prompt to put seeds in soil and start the new growing season for the whole garden.
Looks like Mother Nature is leading the way, as ever. The wheel is turning.
Throw back to this time last year, when we had snow for Candlemas/Imbolc. Lots of snow. We built a snow lantern and Middle Teen made the snow maiden. That is all snow. What a contrast to this year.
Blessings to all.
I remember that snow maiden! As for cyclamens, I can’t even keep them alive in the house. 😉
I seem to be good at keeping them alive. I’ve rescued a few from the bargain trolleys in shops. I put it down to luck and neglecting them until they need watering.
What pretty flowers. What a lovely surprise for you.
That snow lantern is amazing!
It was a nice surprise.
