After the fiasco that was last 'summer' (only the calendar looked like summer, for me spring went straight to autumn)...
Anyway, I never got around to doing any spring planting at the end of last year, but happily the previous years daffs, snow drops and crocus are battling their way out as I type.
Can anyone recommend a few flowers to be planting now, I'd like some big blousey flowers maybe with some scent, and nice and bright....
With the nice weather at the moment (ie no rain), i'd like to do a tidy up this weekend, and maybe plant out a few things after i excavate the weeds from the beds.
The garden is only 2 years old, so I'm open to any suggestions... Soil type is clay, and tendency to hold water when we have a summer like last year...
