...I've been pulling out some horse tail weed - great job that... what a weed, I wish I could fall in love with it...
put up some trellis for sweet peas I'm getting tomorrow.... and planted up the most expensive plant I've ever bought but wouldn't recommend anyone else do the same... Daphne 'Eternal Fragrance'.... supposedly flowers all summer but the scent doesn't carry - you have to stick your nose in... makes a nice hedge apparently... I'm growing it in a pot...
TODAY I 'ave bin mostly.....battening down the hatches, secured pots. Soaked them with water too. Moved bits 'n' bobs I don't want to end up in next county, eg compost lid, empty plastic pots and watering cans. Tied in wisteria and rambling rose. Now untangling my hair!
Went around the garden placing plant labels to mark each plants location. In Autumn I plan to lift them all when I redesign the garden. I prefer to use these black T lables with a white marker..

I didn't do anything in the garden today! Went shopping, made 2 cakes, did pile of ironing, watched "Escape to the Country". It rained.
Tulips are splendid, fresh bark on all the borders and finally my hostas are showing...phew.
Same picture twice because I was trying to upload the type that expands when you click on it, to no avail.
It looks beautiful Wintersong- both times
The problem is with the GW site that won't let photos expand. If you upload a photo from something like photobucket or picasa it will expand.
Coffee break! Phew, it is blowing a Hoolie!
