March! The start of the gardening year. Allotmenteers trickle back, attracted by the light and an itch for sowing seed.
It’s the month of the equinox. The beginning of British summertime, though we’ll also settle for spring. There will be snowdrops in woodland, perhaps wild garlic and primroses, too. Pussy willow and cherry blossom will be bursting. Maybe magnolia, too.
