The UK is basking in some glorious sunshine at the moment – at last!
Forecasters also suggest that the sun will stick around for a blazing Bank Holiday weekend.By Monday the mercury will hit a balmy and pleasant 19C.
Good news for gardeners who are busy everywhere planting seeds like mad and getting plots ready for the growing season which has been delayed by up to 4 weeks this year due to cold and wet weather.
1st May is also National Sunflower Day set up by Guerilla Gardening with the aim of encouraging everyone to go out beyond their gardens and plant sunflower seeds in the hope that they will bring beauty and health to our neighbourhoods.

Debbie - who has written 872 posts on My Climate Change Garden.
I am not an experienced gardener - more of an enthusiastic amateur who learns by trial and error and who is keen to "manage" the effects of shifting weather patterns on my garden.
Writing this blog is my passion and it has evolved over 12 years to inspire engagement with climate change outside our back doors, in our personal gardens and green spaces.
My mission is to fertilise and expand this platform to grow a community of global gardeners communicating about the effects of climate change on our plants and exploring how each individual can make small changes in our lives to become more sustainable.
The future of our gardens and #OurPlanet is in our hands - please plant your own seeds for our collective sustainable future.
