Not all bad news

Good to read that record numbers of people got into gardening this year and spent money on buying bulbs and plants. Maybe the last few months have taught us to count our blessings and instead of moaning incessantly to get growing and to enjoy our patch of land, no matter how small. I bet a lot of the traffic to the RHS website will be from this very forum

To Plant a Garden is to Believe in Tomorrow

Fingers crossed it will prove to be a majority.
Those who have been furloughed, and are returning to work [for however long that may be ] won' t have the same amount of time to spend on their gardens.
All the people I've seen out walking, in their brand new 'trainers', are disappearing because of weather too, and I can't see many of them continuing doing it once they go back to work either, even once the weather is more suitable for them - in 6 months time.
If some keep up the planting/growing interest though - that's a great thing. Everyone needs to find pleasure in the small things, in their ever increasingly hectic lives.
Even though, lockdown permitting
How lucky we are to have our gardens. 😀
I'm glad you've found the interest and want to keep it going. It was my sanctuary when I suddenly found myself a single parent, and completely lost. It's still a sanctuary
