What are we doing in the garden 2024

Just back from a garden check: It will take me hours to get the leaves back where they were - once the storm is over.

 

Nothing done outside yesterday due to rain/sleet/snow/hail/ice [in that order!] and wind. Snow's now all gone as we had high temps overnight [more weird weather] and it's to be mainly dry but windy.
I doubt I'll do much though, as there isn't really anything important that requires it. Everything that matters is sorted well before this point in the year, and it's only odd, unimportant things that can also be left. Daughter is off so it'll possibly be a double walk anyway.

 

Nothing today it's raining and there's not much to do at the moment.

 

A sort of


(… the corner were I had them left…)

 

The storm had blown a row of small pots with violas off my windowsill so I went out in the torrential rain to pick them up off the paving. Luckily this time I'd used plastic pots and not my usual small terracotta pots, The gritty compost has gone everywhere of course. My fault, it was so, so wet all day yesterday I didn't want to venture out to secure everything.
There is now rather a large puddle under the bottom sleeper of the leaning retaining sleepers. We were hoping that would be rebuilt tomorrow - fat chance!
