Garden jobs for February

Peas, soaked overnight and sown in a length of gutter

Two brackets attached to the greenhouse shelf are used to hold the gutter sown with peas

Pots of Mara de Bois strawberries, overwintered in the coldframe, have been tidied and top dressed with fish blood and bone in readiness for an early greenhouse crop

Autumn-sown cornflowers are growing in modules ready to go out in the garden in  a few weeks time

The sword-like Astelia leaves look wonderful in the low afternoon sun
