Plum blossom

Friday was breezy, cloudy and mild. Surprising comparing the average temperatures for February and March, is that March was only 0.3°C warmer than February.

Our plums and greengages are in flower on the plot. Oullins gage is fully out and looks very pretty. I'm never sure whether this is a plum or a gage but judging from the flowers I'm sticking to it being a plum.

Our extra early potatoes Winston and Maris Bard were planted in bags and place in the plot greenhouse. They should perhaps have been planted a bit earlier but I'm sure with a start in the greenhouse they will be ready for harvesting before any of the outdoor crops to be planted over the next couple of weeks.
