After the rain, back to the sunshine and a bit of a breeze. Potted on 3 nandinas and sorted out pots of narcissi and tulips. OH levelled off flower bed and temporarily laid paving stones as a path through it. Dug it over and added Growmore . Checked over plants in coldframe, took off dead leaves and watered them.
Getting quite blustery here, but lovely and sunny. Did other things for most of the day, but have found a couple of hours to finish some weeding in a border in a more sheltered part of the garden. Half way through, taking obligatory cuppa break.
Hello all , filled my water butts up and started cutting Hawthorn Hedge O/H planted some Lobelia & some more marigold seeds Gave the cars a quick clean 🧽, surprisingly how dirty they where considering hardly using them
Have been skimming some of the duck weed off the top of the pond whilst avoiding all the tadpoles. Quite theraputic in the sunshine. Did a bit of weeding and will be watering the greenhouse once the sun has gone down.
I sowed more carrot seeds which my daughter had very kindly sent me and then started weeding the front border Dug up 3-4 grasses, Verbascum, Phlomis italica, sisyrinchium and lots of invading Jap.anemones. Put them all on drive for people to take them away (hopefully) Did occur to me I could put out a collecting bucket for the NHS, should I do so?
@Lizzie27 collection is a fab idea, there doing it in my mum's little village then putting a post on the village Facebook page (I have zero understanding as this forum is my only form of social media, I'm proper old school), people are collecting while out walking and it's raising a little fund.
No gardening for me today I think, my wife has gone back to work as a teaching assistant (very nervous) so I'm home alone with 2 little boys (very nervous, both them and I 🤣)
