Good to hear from you Flumpy especially now you have joined the Union!!! I do not think the weather is going to be as good next week. More wind and wet and not quite so warm.
Colder this morning, grey and dry but rain forecast for about 11 am so must get started soon. plenty to do in the conservatory still if the rain gets too heavy.
Rain came before 10am! So started on the table in the conservatory. I gave it a clean cloth and brought in one wicker container which will not last another year. Roses and salvias still flowering well.
Morning Marion, you did a good job of the basket, it looks very nice, what are you upto today?, the weather here is dull but dry, what's it like in Bristol?.
ive got a tray of pancies and violas to put in, my spring onions are about an inch tall now, first time I've grown them
Well done on the spring onions Flumpy. That's what come of joining the Union(in house joke). I have done quite a bit in the garden this morning as the drizzle has stopped and. it is quite warm. Planted ten bulbs of Iris "Katherine Hodgkin" in a nice terra cotta pot and cut up a container full of prunings from one of the mountains to line up by the green wheeliebin waiting for Friday morning. I managed to squeeze another two tender plants onto one of the conservatory windowsills too GWRS. Grit is good for covering the tops of tulip pots as it stops them smelling them so they do not know they are planted there.
