Forsythia should be long over by the time the cherry blossom is out

The garden has in the last few weeks leapt from winter torpor to that point of high spring where you just have to turn your back for weeds to be ankle-deep; so there have been a lot of delayed chores to catch up with -- and on the surprisingly good weather for the early bank holiday, the temptation to get out in the sunshine and fresh air on the bicycle.

So now the plants in the greenhouse are getting to the size to be planted out, or into grow-bags, the weather turns cold and very wet again.
