WHAT ARE WE DOING IN THE GARDEN TODAY - 2022

Moved a loganberry plant to the back of the garden, it was from a runner so probably get one to take it's place.

 

I've been sorting the shelving out in my greenhouse now the windows are in, and I've been putting the cacti and succulents in place.
I have lots more to bring up from the perspex shelter by the garage tomorrow and I doubt there's enough room on the shelves for them all, some will have to go on the floor !
When they are dotted around in various places they don't look so many, but all together, well, there are more than I thought

Isn't it strange how less sluggish one feels after doing something outside

 

Nothing today it's been raining

 

Nothing today either - but I have a very good excuse we are away from home for a couple of days as my wife had an eye operation at a hospital in another city. As she has an early morning appointment for tomorrow we are staying the night in a B&B!

I'm writing all my posts this evening on my phone! There's a first time for everything!

 

Best wishes for your wife's operation tomorrow @Balc.

 

All the best for your wife @Balc

 

Just put my hanging baskets away for the winter with the plants still in.
Spread some leaves around the back garden.

 

Morning Logan. Are you hoping the plants will survive? Why are you spreading the leaves around? Do you mean in the borders for mulch? As I don't have to do any of these things, just curious.

 

Thanks for the good wishes for my wife The operation went well according to the doctors She is now having her first revision with the consultant now.

 

Morning Victoria yes hopefully i can over winter the plants.
Yes the leaves are for a mulch around my fruit bushes and Azaleas, i won't use it for the other borders because the slugs and snails will hide in it. There's no harm in asking

 

That's good Balc

 

@Balc I am glad to hear your wife's eye surgery went well. Having any procedure on your eyes has got to be one of the most stressful of all medical operations!

I only tried to do something a little different with my bird feeder and table. I moved the stabilizing block of wood from underneath the table, to on top and then drilled from the underside up through the table to secure things. The squirrels were using the block as a "hand hold" to grab and swing themselves out and up onto the table. Then they sat there pigging out. I hope this works.
