At least I suppose it must be, but actually it is still very mild and wet. I sewed a couple of ag. fleece bags: one for the lilac tree and one for the two blueberry plants which are still in pots. I hope that the bags will stay put better than the wrapped fleece which I have tried before - that always seems to work loose in the wind. I put another bag over the raspberry plant since it showed willing and actually produced two raspberries this year! Really must sort out that bed next summer though.
I covered the "special plants" in the back-right box, and also sowed two squares (front one on left side and the square behind it) with sweet chestnut and spindle seeds. Doubt if they will come up and not sure what I will do with them if they do! And I put fleece over the strawberry beds.
There are still some carrots in the left box so that is still uncovered but since the garlic is in there too I will need to put fleece over it later.
As I said, it has been mild, and the blueberry plants and the rose bush looked as though the end buds were either swelling or actually producing leaves. That is probably not good.
