Haven't done anything for over a week . Reason RAIN RAIN RAIN RAIN and more RAIN is it ever gonna end .I'm not the biggest fan of the winter cold dirty damp wet muddy rain snow sleet short daylight hours pah roll on spring
We started all sunny and blue so I've been out and taken cuttings of my purple gooseberries and trimmed back all the clems in the back and side garden. Some have new shoots a metre long which is a shame but they can't be untangled from last year's growth.
Now it's starting to rain so I shall make a playlist for dance practice and hope it's drier tomorrow. Need to go and buy some serious feed for all the clems and roses and finish pruning the clems out the front and other side.

I got the big ladders out to get a cutting off tge big rose growing over a hawthorn. I also took some hardwood cutting off Cornus kousa chinensis. They may not grow, but I won't have lost a lot.
