Baskets and Tulips

Last year, following the very warm March, the birch plant supports were made during the first week of April amongst the flowering tulips, see blog entry 4th April 'Don't Forget The Echinacea'. This year, following a very cold March, the making of the plant supports, the baskets, has started three weeks later. Carefully tiptoeing through the tulips, the first baskets to be made are to support the Acanthus, many more baskets will be made to support the other plants over the coming weeks.
