What jobs are we doing today in the garden ?

I love sniffing the perfumed flowers !!
Scent makes a garden

 

I spent four hours working on an 80ft hedge, mind you it's not the trimming so much as the clearing up that takes the time. I watered all my garden pots and tomatoes in the greenhouse and hour or so ago.

 

Not much today, just fertilized the lawn ( no need to water in mother nature will take care of this tomorrow )
Might go to b&q tomorrow to see if anything catches my eye

 

If the hedge is adjacent to lawn (rather than, say, gravel path) then mowing with a rotary should remove most of the material

 

I did a "weed and feed" watering can job on the postage stamp size lawn yesterday too .

 

i was going to do some weeding and a trip to get the fence paint, but its persisting down again ho-hum, i suppose i'll have to do something else with my day orf

good job i cut the grass last night.

 

Stopping in the GH....potting on some fushia and Rosemary cuttings and moaning about the weather

 

Loads of the wet stuff here, which i suppose is pay back for not cutting the grass yesterday, removed a snail that was heading up to my poppy head (I don't think so matey) so looks like a day in the house for me.......oh joy

 

Dry and cloudy now after overnight rain, got a large nana to plant and some painting and potting if it rains again

 

Poor Nana....

 

I sprayed yet more aphids with soapy water last night. As soon as you kill them they pop up somewhere else

Still haven't managed to mow the lawn or do anything more energetic because the lurgy has worsened, plus it's now raining and forecast to do so all weekend, so nowt will get done.

the little burgers have decimated my lupin. i sat there last night nuking them with soapy water too.

 

Pooted up some lavender plants on the patio I got for 99p each. Potted on some mini butterfly bushes, tied in peas and sweet peas and i have sown some wallflower seeds.
