Shed re-felted, in a strong wind. Hope it's not as windy in Tracey Newbie land
MrsGarden hope guests have brought coats. Nice plants Lily. Very nice sounding lunch Lizzie, we are having a curry deliverd tonight so only effort is picking which to have.
Pulsatilla vulgaris ( Pasque flowers) doing very well.
Chicky nice bulbs
Dove I'll have to Google your rose. Maybe use bus pass and collect it
As well as spreading manure and mulching I've sown some sunflower seeds between the terrace where we sit out and the fruit patch, and planted a new thyme and oregano as the ones we have don't always keep up with demand.
At some stage this morning, probably while I came in for coffee a sparrowhawk must've taken one of our woodpigeons - just some feathers left and no way a cat could've removed it from the garden without trace - the feathers were exactly where some were left last year when OH watched a sparrowhawk take one of the pigeons. We do get peregrines take pigeons off the roof, but I don't think a peregrine would come right down into the garden which is fairly enclosed.
KEF I did think of going and picking it up, but they don't seem to do that .... it's ok, I can keep myself busy while I wait
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Dove it looks a beautiful rose. Must be exciting to form a new garden. Ours was all knee high stuff and no privacy so I planted a right selection of things that would give height, all planted too close together as I was desperate for privacy. We had to knock the house back to a shell, so all efforts went into that. Now I'm starting to look at what needs removing and what to replace with things I love.
Nearly forgot my cheapo hellibore has given birth.
OH watching men squabbling in the mud over a funny shaped ball. This will go on until 7pm . England trounced Italy, Wales are thrashing Scotland, just Ireland v France to go.
Not a lot of gardening done today... too stiff after too much digging yesterday. I need to watch GW on i player, I fell asleep last night, by 8.30.
Had a lovely afternoon. OH told me not to buy any more plants from the nice lady in the market. Didn't think he really meant it so I bought another hellebore Well, at £4.50 for a pale purple one it would have been rude not to It is 'unbranded' sadly but will look good all the same.
Don't know if anyone remembers a thread I had a good while back about some hellebores that I thought I had killed? Well am happy to report that they are all thriving and may get planted out soon
I desperately need to create some more planting space for the never ending stream of plants I am buying. Guess I'm going to have to get the spade out soon, unless anyone wants to volunteer???

Hi Andy
Panda best claws in the south.
As well as spreading manure and mulching I've sown some sunflower seeds between the terrace where we sit out and the fruit patch, and planted a new thyme and oregano as the ones we have don't always keep up with demand.

Like your pink flower Kef, never seen one those, might have to search one out.
just looked Iit up can only find the purple one, not the pink
Lily the pink/red one is called Red Clock.

Hi KEF if you went up on a roof here today you would be flying without wings but good for drying the washing wife at work so am in control

Thanks Kef, will look it up.
Congrats on baby hellebore
