Spring is in the Air

It is almost a year since I reported any news from the garden, but now Spring is with us we finally got out into the garden after Easter to take some pictures. The frogs have spawned already, choosing the new pond again this year. They have also chosen the opposite end to last year to spawn in. There is a lot of frog spawn too. Lets hope this is the start of a successful year with the pond. The primulas are flowering too. One of the drumstick primulas has survived in the bog garden, and the cow slips are just coming into flower too.
