mothers-in-law

these are some of the garden as it was this morning if you want to have a look at more go look at me blog in my sig

 

Hope you all enjoyed today few things going on in the garden already and i cant see no nettle or sticky bud unlike mine top job kaz xx

 

here are a few pics of the pots i have planted up to give you an idea of what i have done just to inject some instant colour and effect for now






i have done four of these , there is a rose in the center of each one


back pot is lupins and the front one is a spirea snowmound and marigolds around the edge



meant to be a strawberry planter but i have planted a mix of the creepers that mam had plus a nemesia in the top which i bought just something different lol



mams view now from her window


the builder says not to plant anything untill the work has been done as some of the lawn will be lost when the paths are layed and the garden will have to be used to store what is needed for the down stairs bathroom being built but at least if things are in pots they can be moved
have decided to buy more of these pots from Morrisons

 

Brilliant! the pots are lovelyi am a blue fan ya can come and design mine when ya finished at ur mams cant wait to see it all in 6 mnths my mam has a walk in bathroom/shower room downstairs ( which was originally put in for my gran rip)and come winter the back door area is stored with overwinter pots,my gran used to say its like having a shower in the garden centre my mothers always been a keen gardener x

 

just for you joolz
from in the corner between the wall and tall fence and they are all around the edges but the guy with the strimmer seems to miss these

 

Kaz,grab a bucket..
nettle grows so fast im going to pull mine up and put in the buckets of water my comfrey leaves are in...good home made plant feed i can send u a comfrey plant aswell then u can do ur own mix but it stinks as the weeks go on...u just hold ya breath,stir it and run x

 

i have comfry on the plot and your right

i am sitting here like i haven't got to be 30 miles down the road by 8.30 tomorrow morning for death by powerpoint training day on alzhimers and dementia !

i think i need to go to bed night julie

 

i have been on the phone with mam and she informs me that all pots are doing well and thriving in all this rain we are having, i have some of those large veg bags spare this year as i have the plot so i am going to plant into some of these until the final work has been done, that way they will have a head start for when they are put in to final position and it will also give me a visual of how things are looking and if anything needs repositioning
and on another note but still to do with MIL the DHSS have called her in for a interview to see if she is fit to return to work they couldnt have read the 30 plus page report that we filled in and the dr submitted for her :wallbang: so thats something else for her to stress over

 

Don't forget to give us a shout Kaz when you're ready for plants

 

My box will be posted tues morn let me know if u need pots sending with them(9cm) x
