Late winter is a good time to review things in the garden, what worked, what didn't, what to do next time. And late winter as it will be time to start spring tasks soon.

I noted what flowers the bees liked last summer:

Crepis rubra

foxgloves

knautia

sheepsbit

green alkanet 

scilla peruviana 

red campion

dandelions

iris foetidissima 

borage

poppies

giant scabious

echium vulgare

As I had to move recently, I won't have a lot of self-seeders this spring / summer but I have 40 packets of seeds plus some seeds I collected myself which I will track their growth at Seeds 2024.
