WHAT JOBS ARE WE DOING IN THE GARDEN TODAY - 2017

Would Caryopteris × clandonensis 'Heavenly Blue' grow in the gap behind the barrel. It might even go in the space in front of the cage. The write up says light soil. My soil definitely isn't light.

Penstemon or Agastache are also in the running.

I,ve managed to cobble together a picture of how it might look. (not to scale)

No gardening apart from wandering around and looking at it. Weather much calmer yesterday but not much enthusiasm for gardening. We went for a walk around Parys Mountain instead. Also known as The Copper Kingdom. Its a fascinating landscape and we mainly had it to ourselves.

Hoping to do a bit in the garden today.

 

@2nd_bassoon
You could perhaps try giving your kitty some digging areas of his own using trays or pots and adding some catnip to the soil/compost..

 

Did nothing yesterday. Just couldn't get the "get up and go" going, think it's gone on holiday and not told me
Still got loads of cuttings to do, does anyone know if it's too late to do Dianthus ( Carnations and Pinks ) cuttings? Perhaps Mrs Shiney would know @shiney . Thanks

PS... @shiney , have you got a local pig farmer near you, you might be able to exchange your windfall apples for some pork?

 

This morning, I ave mostly been sieving compost

 

Potted these on, they'd made good root growth



The rest are new cuttings

 

So when I take that pine tree down, that viburnum could go there. deep sigh. lots of work to ready that area. Why am I not skinny???

 

Both XC and BBC weather have got it rather spectacularly wrong. Both forecasts stated that after the I woke up to there would be unbroken between 10am - 2pm and then between 4pm until sunset with Zero Rainfall. What we had was and with low cloud and lots of sea mist around the coast and decidedly chilly . So no gardening as planned. Went up to South Stacks for lunch instead where the mist invariably became thick fog. We talked about gardening over lunch though or I did and R listened in a vague sort of way

 

I've had lunch at South Stacks

What did you think? The food has improved in past year or two. And a fantastic view if the weather is good

 

@luciusmaximus It was years ago (10 maybe or more). A tour guide took us. I vaguely remember it being difficult to get to by coach and too small for the size of group. Next time a guide suggested it I suggested otherwise.

I need a bond fire emoji.
