Today is another lovely spring day, and new stuff keeps appearing in the garden. The first of the forget-me-nots has just opened, I bought a packet of seeds in the autumn of 1986, sprinkled them in the garden in 1987 and they've been reseeding themselves ever since. I admit to cheating a bit when we moved house, I saved some seed and brought it with me, although I needn't have bothered, because we had a couple of self-seeded plants in one of the large pots.

The ubiquitous dandelion is not an unattractive flower, just a hideous plant that pervades and is almost impossible to eradicate.

Last year I planted an asparagus root, and followed the instructions not to cut it during the first season. We are both looking forward to a small taster this year.

Last, but not least, a little bug in a daffodil.

Lovely fresh spring photo's Joy...And I took an almost identical one to your dafadil with a little black bugin it the other day x
Nice piccys Joy. I like the dandelion flower. It is just all those huge leaves that are a pain. Know exactly what you mean about leaving comments - I too get the few loyal 'commenters'. A fair amount of views, but no comments. Maybe people just flick around blogs and read, but don't find the time or need to make a comment - oh well. I'll still visit you and leave a comment, which I try to do on any blogs I visit, but then that is me.

I hardly dare comment ;-)
Like you, I often think I am just wittering to a few, or even just to myself. And I have over 600 followers LOL
I think "following" has different meanings to different folks. For me, it's blogs I like to drop in on now and then, not daily (I wish!) and I think it's the same for my followers. Either that, or I attract large numbers of very shy folk.
The dandelion picture is gorgeous!
