The weather is rubbish here, it was yesterday too. Having done much today sorted out a few pots and finished the lighting in the garden. Having trouble deciding where things go regarding pots, not usually so undecisive.
In the end, no rain, started turning over the veg plot, sun came out. Got that finished, now weeding a front border where I put in a new Yew hedge last autumn. Nice place to be at the moment because it catches the last of the daily sun here.
Have planted out more alchemilla mollis, pulminaria and Centurea Montana. Removed all the Loosestrife from the beds, not a fun job massive Matt of roots. Potted up some Lillie's that my mum gave me. Looked round the garden and decided that we've not even touched the sides of all the work
Took some cuttings of geraniums & Ivy and repotted some Christmas cactus , in the g/h this morning Just got back from a walk , in need of a coffee break / little rest
Finally got round to sowing some seed, including Cosmos, Gaura and Agastache. Think l might leave the tomatoes for a couple of days. Watered the cuttings etc. in pots all over the place. Not a bad day, sunny but still a bit breezy.
Planted a row of Wilja potatoes, and sowed runner beans in 11cm square pots on the glasshouse bench along with peas and the tomatoes, now potted on, did a little weeding in the flower beds, enjoyed the lovely weather, after a nice drop of overnight rain.
Just realised I had mislabelled some of my seeds. The sweetpeas were labelled dark mullien and vice versa. Have put that right and also potted on 30 Lobelia Mrs Clibran.
Painted some cream walls with grey masonry paint to tie in better with the fences. Tidied up pots and rubbish from the bottom yard. Planted some box balls that were in pots while I decided where they would go. Added a row of bricks to a low raised bed and planted some penstemons and choisyas that were also in pots waiting for me to make my mind up where to plant them. All in all a really busy successful day.
