WHAT JOBS ARE WE DOING IN THE GARDEN TODAY - 2017

I've made the false window today, think it would look better with the two middle horizontal beams painted black.

 

I like it as it is @martin-f. Will the beams be horizontal or vertical?

 

Thanks S, it will be the way it is in the photo when looking at it, ive had a play with the picture in paint, I think it looks better like this, what do you think now please.


Hee my Tulips are coming up

 

Before it gets raining again in the afternoon, I planted 13 trees/shrubs this morning

 

Installed window painted it black in the end, i think my mind mind was made up , lattice work, plastic roof, planters to make, decking for the base, climbing plants next, shame its reflecting on the houses but it serves a purpose,

It will make an ideal spot for the BBQ, I've temporary put the bird feeders there, they appear to like there reflection .

 

I cut back my late clematis', three of them and put new bamboo obelisk shaped things already for them to grow up.

 

Having now seen it in the arbour @martin-f I still prefer it green, sorry! I think the green in between would have drawn the rest of the arbour into it and help it all blend together. But it's your choice of course.

 

Thank you S, I see what your saying, I wanted it to look like one big window, I couldn't see that with the green but I can with the black, my wife said she preferred it black so that was that, your input is really appreciated many thanks

 

Today I am worn out, having finished planting about 80 mixed hedging plants. Phew! It's taken most of the week. I had help digging the holes and am lucky enough to have a large supply of manure but I am glad that job is done.....now I can watch them grow, but first a glass of wine I think.

 

Where That's better M , need a few climbers now
