What jobs are we doing in the Garden today 2015

bit of a general tidy around , gave all the plants in the greenhouse a good drink early this morning thats another 1st since October , honeysuckle buds have already started in to growth so glad I sorted out in late October.
Best year for my snowdrops as I planted more about two years ago and they have clumped up nicely , dogs tooth violets are now all up will wait and see if they flower, 1st time I have grown them, I have planted a few here and there to see what part of the garden they like the most.
aka Erythronium.

 

@wiseowl IS YOUR GARDEN GETTING BIGGER

 

The antics folk get up to to get out of gardening! Hope you mend soon.

 

Sounds like a plan!

 

Just a quick 'thank you' for the good wishes Spring has finally sprung this week, so am going to put a comfy chair in a sheltered spot and make a very long list of jobs to do......eventually

 

So sorry to hear that noisette and do hope you mend quickly
I managed to damage my spine when I fell on my bum on a slippery slope while mowing a few years ago. It still gives me trouble which is one of the reasons I now garden using the no dig method.... So, despite having a well padded derrière, it is possible......

I've been collecting up all my pots into an old compost bin. Now I'll know where they are and they won't be blowing round the garden And been preparing a space for my new shade tunnel. I've lusted after one for years and have found a 2m x3m tunnel with a sturdy looking frame at a really good price. I won't be putting the poly cover on it (if I did I imagine it could easily end up in Italy), but am going to order shade netting online to cover it. Then I shall be able to continue bringing plants on even in the heat of summer when my greenhouse will be too hot for anything but serious tropicals

 

Sowed most of my sweet peas today I've been holding off for weeks because of the move so I hope they catch up quick planning to pretty much cloth all the ugly fencing at the back this summer until I can get a something established in the long term I also Sowed some Snapdragons and Dahlia seed and a new one for me "Chillean Glory Vine" really looking forward to that one it looks gorgeous!

Sent on the go from my telephone

 

So glad you're back out there shiney. Above all enjoy and don't do too much!

 

Hi all,

Front and back lawns cut all the edging sorted as well , amazing couple of simple jobs and it really makes a difference.

Found more Vine weevil in another pot of heuchera , over 20 , so looks like I will have to re pot all the plants and wash and trim before replanting in fresh compost , blackbird and robin happy with a free lunch.

Cut down all the old stems of the perennials, so just about catching up to @wiseowl at last

 

Shoveling snow

 

Soaked a few seeds, sowed a few seeds. Opened up the blowaway for an airing. It's getting hot in there already. Quite a few bumbles on the crocus. They were covered in pollen. Crouched down to take a photo and couldn't get up again. This bad back malarkey is no fun.
