March is now here, 
what will you be up to in the garden, preparing sowing seeds, buying plants and other bits, what are you growing in the greenhouse/polytunnel, on your allotment plot?

Today I washed out a tray and lid for seed sowing - still more to wash out yet
I fixed up a few bird boxes the roofs - I covered with spare roofing felt as some of the wood starting to crack they are now ready for the community garden
Got more seeds to sow - planning summer pots - paint / finish off a veg planter I've made out of pallets - top up GH bed with homemade compost - empty / turn compost bins - pot up dahlia's , for some reason I've lost all three bishop of Llandaff
most of the other dahlia were fine but for the odd bit - order more dahlia B of Llandaff I have plans 
- verticut lawn maybe feed as well - move and plant some perennials.
Perki, Bishop of Llandaff tubers on offer in Homebase for £2.50
I will be rose pruning then going to Norfolk for a week then seed sowing in the second half of March.
Not a lot.
Far too cold at the moment and soil saturated from all the rain.
When you don't even know who's in the team
S.Yorkshire/Derbyshire border
New shed arrived today !! birthday present request - sad but true. Looking forward to fitting it out. A nice high stool bought for sitting seed sowing and pricking out.
New greenhouse ordered as Doris really took a dislike to the old one. Will get someone to erect though. Ordered loads of heavy duty wind break to give some protection to new one.
Itching to start seed sowing now.
Do all hard landscaping clean paths, paint fences and need to replace 4 fences due to storm Doris
Got 2 pyrancatha and 3 clematis that I want to plant out. I need to run some wires across the fences which I'll do this weekend too... I'll sow some annuals in trays.
Will also try and mulch everything this weekend.
Sowed 30 different lots of seed. Ordered a couple more, as you do! Repotted cuttings And a large Azalea. Cut down 1 Buddlea, other stuff in the borders, several grasses, and planted 100 nerines, repotted all the strawberry plants.
