First Iris reticulata has popped open. Been busy putting in protection in the polytunnel today against my little mouse nemesis, just a bit to finish tmrw night after work and let’s see what happens. Filled up all the gaps with pea shingle (thanks for the tip Jason 👍🏼 @hebelover ) and got some small gauge chicken wire to fit around base of door.

Wonderful markings. Your mouse is going to have a shock when he finds access barred by an obstacle course☺️
