The gardening week in May fell on the coldest week we have had for a long time, not only cold but wet. Lucia, who is an ELPM student on the communicating with plants course arrived on Monday evening. I had bought quite a lot of plants back from the UK with me, so on Tuesday morning we braved the rain and wind and set about planting, Star of bethlehem (Ornithogalum umbellatum), woad (Isatis Tinctoria, L), a clump of small leaved Sorrel that I am unable to find its English or Latin name...will look harder later, a lovely big honeysuckle (Lonicera periclymenum), Agrimony (Agrimonia eupatoria) and many others (too late in the evening to try and name them all). By the end of the afternoon we were cold right down to the bones and spent the rest of the day trying to warm up, if that's what you call gardening...only joking!
