    Evening folks.

    Just caught up on two days of chat. Had a lovely evening at a friend’s last night, including a Body Shop ‘party’, and had little my little niece over today 😎 
    She took a shine to a cola-scented pelargonium, so I will make some cuttings and hope they take. 

    It’s a joy to do plant swaps, give garden tips or come home from a visit with something for the garden @Dovefromabove @Hostafan1 @punkdoc  


    Have a lovely weekend all. 
    My garden and I live in South Wales.

    Another day of greenhouse building here. The roof is on and all the bracing in is. Staging supports, vents and we'll maybe make a start on the glass tomorrow.

    OH got the big mower out to cut the path to the gate through the 'orchard' - the cow parsley is full throttle at the moment and if we do get rain tonight, we'd get very wet walking up the garden in the morning to take the dog out because it flops and those flower heads hold a surprising amount of water as you brush past. First time he's cut it this year.

    I’m having a relaxing Sunday morning. Had 8ml rain overnight. 

    Picked a few more tomatoes from the greenhouse to add to my little collection.  Handy on the kitchen windowsill along with parsley and rosemary. 🤪🤪

    Morning all.

    It's very cloudy, I hope it stays dry for Didy's plant market. I'll be going there later.

    Yes @Busy-Lizzie … fingers very crossed 🤞 for @didyw … it’s dry here at the moment but the afternoon looks wet …. not sure if we’re going to make it there … we must get the asparagus bed done and the runners planted this morning. If it stays dry this afternoon we might venture out …

    Good morning all.

    Some weeding on the cards this morning - mainly bindweed - the losing battle!!

    @didyw and that the weather is clement for you.
    Night night @Pat E

    A la Sainte-Denise, le froid n'en fait plus à sa guise!

    Happy Sunday to everyone!

    A good hoeing is worth two waterings.

    Dove, the tray is part of a set of 3 pots for growing plants.   I tend to use the tray for other purposes though. 🙄

    We moonwatched too for a while yesterday evening @Pat E … an almost full moon for us … it’ll be full for us tonight. 
    Better warn @wild edges that his children may be restless.
