Day 43: after the snow

Daily details from the garden to bring you inspiration throughout the year

The snow is in retreat, and in its wake ice, slush, and the creep of small evergreen things around the house. The ivy, naturally – it thinks we haven’t noticed it climbing towards the tiles over the bay window, but we’re on to it, and the days of its extremities are numbered. In the sandy gaps of the bloody-awful block paving (*muttering*) the erigeron is bulking up, spindly now, but a prelude to pillowy mounds of pink and white come summer, providing I can head off people ‘helpfully’ weeding it out. And by the back door, from a spilled pot, a slick of Soleirolia soleirolii, minding its own business as it tumbles out and across and down. It will cover us all if it gets its way – reason enough, were one wanting, not to stand in one place for too long.
