What's everyone been up to in the garden?

That’s impressive about the strawberry plant — mine didn’t make it past winter last year. I’ve been keeping a few survivor herbs indoors too, and they’ve done better than expected. Having a little corner for houseplants made it easier to keep track of them, and seeing them push new growth always feels rewarding.
 
First few days of double figure temps and last freeze of the year due soon here so I've been pottering around trying to make the most of it. Mowing and raking, filling some troughs with soil and amendments ready for some plants in a few weeks or so. Sown a few things indoors in trays and pots, 2 types of strawberries, some chillis, sunflowers, edible flowers (must remember to either label the hell out of these or put in their own trough so don't get confused with the japanese carpet flowers!) dill, basil, parsley.

I assume everyone else is ahead of me as the season starts later this far north, so what have you all been up to so I know what I have to look forward to :)
