As with most things decent weather is a relative statement.   One person’s sunny day is another’s pollen hell.  The past week has been marked by a significant amount of rain which is what we have really needed for some time as the ground has been very hard for this time of year.   However, that seems to have passed and we now have a period of sunny but not too warm weather.  This does mean that plants in the garden are growing at an almost exponential rate – almost.
