Lots of gardening done this morning watched by a very tame collar dove. He usually sits and watches me for ages till I pick up my camera but I think I may have got him this time.
well I feel soooo tired because I've just had a really big carvery and a glass of wine, we went to the garden centre got plant food and clips to hold my sweet peas up, the sun as only just made an appearance after a grey day, but at least it didn't rain
What a dramatic picture of the evening sky. Yes, that is apple mint which has nice variegations on its leaves. It did not die down in the winter so I could have mint tea from fresh mint whenever I wanted.
Don't post very often, but always follow your thread Marion. Hope you have a very successful open day on Wednesday - your visitors will love it, there is always so much to see It is indeed a £1million garden
All systems go today as cakes must be baked for tomorrow, house cleaned in case it rains and final tweaking in the garden including sweeping paths and taking the secateurs to anything overhanging. It is cloudy but dry and warm.

I use twine for my sweet peas, cheaper. I worked hard today and took some pictures to show off my work.
You have been working hard Marion it looks lovely, lt looks like you will have a good crop of strawberries there, is the last plant mint?
Just looked out of my kitchen window at 9.30pm and had to take a photo of the sky
