My favourite season in the garden is the Summer because it makes me happy to see all the hard work pay off when all the lovely bright and colourful flowers are out.

Winter – the trees are bare, garden’s covered in snow
I’m not very green fingered but no one will know!

Spring! I love the hope and optimism of the first new greenery appearing. And an al fresco coffee on a crisp morning.

Summer. Those lovely long days spent in the garden right until the light has faded to nothing.

Spring is my favourite season now, because it heralds the start of longer evenings, and all the new growth. A very optimistic season. I used to prefer Autumn (for the colours and smells, and the warmth still in the atmosphere). However, now it’s Spring for me.

spring; bulbs blossom new life

Spring, watching the potential start to reveal itself

Really hard to choose just one as there are joys to all seasons. I will choose the time in the late summer/ early autumn when apples can be picked to eat.

Summer because we spend so much more time in the garden in the fine weather and I love picking fresh strawberries from our strawberry patch with my children and seeing how many we can collect each day

I love the promise of Spring.

I just adore Spring After the bare bleakness of Winter the garden emerges into a life affirming surge of growth mosses and bulbs bring forth scent and colour and buds burst open and the birds serenade this loveliest of seasons

I love the Summer, being out in the warmth, and seeing all the plants bursting into beautiful colour. I love to sit out and contemplate with my cup of coffee in the morning.

springtime, a season of new beginnings.Full of hope and growth for feeling positive about the year ahead

I enjoy Spring the garden is coming back to live and I can add new life when I plant my chosen vegetables for that year, see then grow is wonderful

I love the summer as all the roses and flowers are blooming and smell gorgeous reminds me so much of my late husband he loved his flowers and rose bushes so I’ve got a space where I put rose bushes just for him, they are lovely bright colours and I know he will love them, brings back lots of lovely memories. Thank you for the opportunity to enter.

It has to be Autumn when all the Colours are appearing and late flower,s are still in bloom, and there is that special Autumn smell in the air

My favourite time in the garden is anytime. I love my garden and with the co-vid pandemic, it has kept me sane. We moved into a new house 18 months ago. After getting the house sorted, we started on the garden. We have had over 20 tons of topsoil delivered which was dumped on our front drive. It all had to be barrowed to our back garden. We have almost 80% of the garden laid out and planted up. This coming spring we will construct our raised beds for fruit and vegetables in the area behind the garage. Panting so far has been to encourage wildlife. My husband doesn’t know this but I have a remote camera for him for Christmas to record all our visitors.

It has to be Soring. The anticipation of the new growing year, sorting my seeds into planting order , reviving my pots of lilies cleaning the greenhouse, starting new projects and watching the clematis grow. It’s a season of hope and I love it.

My favourite season is summer when the garden is most colourful, in full leaf and bloom with beautiful flowers and fuller coverage. Summer evenings sitting in the garden with the flowers and plants reflecting light are so relaxing, delightful.

Autumn with its kaleidoscope of colours, love walking in the crunchy leaves watching the gold and amber leaves swaying in the breeze. A cool crisp day with a clear blue sky makes one feel so refreshed and alive, it is the season for all the senses.

My favourite season is Spring – after a dull winter time to plant anew

Summer when everything is in full blool and the birds and butterflies fill the air.

I like Spring as everything starts coming to life, including me.

Early Summer is my favourite time. The garden is full of colour and scent with the promise of lots yet to come.
It’s not too hot either so plenty of time can be spent gardening too!

Winter for sure! I love all the frost, the red berries against the snow and the winter flowering plants! 🙂

Autumn, as I love cleaning up the leaves to see all the beautiful colours, lovely bronze and yellows. Gorgeous

Winter because i love the cold and snow

Spring, there is nothing to match the first green shoots coming through, leading to the anticipation of a bumper crop in later months

spring when the veg seedlings begin to sprout and I can spend hours in my greenhouse

Late summer into early autumn – having worked hard in the garden all Spring and Summer, the best of the produce is ready for harvesting and preserving, there is amazing late summer colour and just the tiniest hint of cooler weather around the corner!

I love the Summer with all the roses in bloom and the bedding plants giving a real splash of colour. This has been a strange year in many ways for the garden, I still have geraniums and agapanthus in bloom in December, who would have thought, Isn’t nature wonderful

I love spring because it has been cold and dark for so long and I can come out from under my duvet. The spring brings focus in planning and sowing, though I have to learn from scratch each year as I put the garden completely out of mind from late August when it becomes unpleasant to be outdoors.
Unfortunately spring also brings a compulsion to buy new equipment I can’t really afford.

My favourite season in the garden is spring. Life starts emerging again, green shoots and flowers appear and birds and insects are busying around! Makes me very happy 🙂

I love Spring when the snowdrops and then the daffodils start to peep through – a sign that Winter will soon be over and longer warmer days will be with us

Autumn – the harvest and my primitive, basic need to preserve and store for the Winter!

Autumn… I can eat the fruits of my labour!

This year I have really appreciated the summer – with the colours and scents and when all the fruits and vegetables come to fruition . I have been learning how to use them to bake and cook and preserve bringing the garden into the home.

Spring – I can watch how everything I planted starts growing.

Has to be Springtime, everything is so green and vibrant so much to do, preparation, sowing, planting,arranging, buying, it goes on and on in a wonderful way. And Gardener’s World starts back up again, hello Monty!

I like spring. corny I know but it is the whole season reaching ahead and the potential.

My favourite season in the garden is the summer. This is when all the fruits of your labour are at their peak. You can spend your time at the allotment just picking vegetables and both the garden and allotment look their best and hopefully the sun is shining so you can sit and enjoy.

Summer, relaxing with friends in the long evenings, a bit of time out to appreciate my hard work.

I love summer. The plants have such beautiful colours and I kove to see all the insects buzzing around. The droning sound of bees always reminds me of summer.

Spring when new life appears and I can come out of hibernation!

My favourite season is summer when I can harvest my own fresh fruit from the garden and also relax in the warmth of the sun.

spring, i love watching all the seeds i planted star to grow!

Summer is my favourite time. I love seeing the garden with flowers in full bloom and veg boarders growing up with yummy delights.. Plus fruit bushes and trees swelling with fruits. With longer days I will enjoy gardening whilst feeling the sun go down on my back. Or, enjoy a relaxing evening just sitting and chatting outside-appreciating the lovely view.

I can’t choose one season! Winter is the most exciting, of course, because that’s when I start my seeds and feel the promise most keenly, sort of like being pregnant. The Babies are here in the spring, and I feel the momentum as they grow toward self-sufficiency. Summer is its own delight because everything comes to fruition and my family can enjoy such a variety of fresh foods. Then there’s Fall, when I make up chutneys, safts, jams, dried flowers, and packets of herbs to be given as holiday gifts. And in the midst of this pandemic, I’m grateful for every day of the year.

Autumn in our garden is beautiful, the colours make life brighter xx

I love the autumn…it’s as if the earth is breathing a sigh of relief, after all the bustle of spring and summer, and snuggling down under a beautiful multicoloured quilt, getting ready to settle into the well deserved sleep of winter.

summer so I can eat all the produce

Spring – i love to see the garden coming to life again

Love the summer and the addition of butterflies, bees and ladybirds in the garden.

its got to be Spring for me ; Putting in a lot of the hard work then so I can reap the benefits in my garden later in the year

I like autumn. It’s a little less overwhelming than summer (though I suppose that’s my own fault – I need to not plant so much!) but there are still plenty of things to be harvested, and the autumn fruit starts to produce. I also love watching things change colour.

Mine is the start of spring, seeing the snow drops and crocuses poking there heads up through the soil.
The first signs of the bees buzzing around the Daffodils. This is the time to plant veg seeds.
You know the warmer weather is upon us.

I love Summer the most as it’s when we can reap the most rewards of our vegetable patch, enjoying them while dining outside.

I don’t have a favourite season…..I love hem all because as each season comes and goes there is always something different to see and do. Hubby and I see the garden as another room of our house and lavish it with much love and attention. It repays us many times over with delicious organic fruit and veg, beautiful floweres intersperrsed amongst them and an abundance of wild life . It also provides us with a great place to sit and relax in…….much needed as we are now both 73!

Autumn is my favourite. As a kid it’s always the most exciting with conkers, bonfire toffee, fallen leaves and fireworks. As an adult it’s the ending of another year with a slide into winter and a chance to take stock before the new spring begins.

Spring is my favourite season. Love the pricking out of seedlings and growing on of vegetables and flowers for this season’s produce. The anticipation of a good season is uplifting.

Spring because it’s a time of renewal and new life

Spring when everything starts to come back to life!

Spring , the season of, as yet, unfulfilled potential
