First clear day after the new year and I'm outside thinking about this summer's garden. I see others are thinking about it too.

Thank you for your video fantastic information. You just explained everything I was wanting to know I am a bit fascinated by my chives just know as the have the most beautiful flowers and the gigantic one I have wanted for years I was going to buy Allium Giganteum from Amazon in seed form but judging by your information I should buy bulbs. I had a stroke last year I just turned 39 a couple of days ago and since the stroke I cannot do much but watching the flowers grow and the bumble bees come out makes me really happy it’s the little things you noticed when you get a second chance at life. I loved this video keep them coming. Lots of love from Scotland xx
