What Jobs are we doing in the Garden today 2014..

Yesterday planted umpteen Buxus

Today or should I say tonight,threw some fleece over the plants in the GH,going to be a cold one

Potted up half a dozen Brugmansia cuttings courtesy of Pete

 

Popped out earlier to move some pots into the shed and garage, and wrapped a fleece over the heavy one. Fingers crossed for my zonal geraniums I haven't taken cuttings from/dug up yet!
I also collected new greenhouse glass earlier. Should have it done on the weekend.

 

Well, I pruned out a few weak stragglers from the dark red rose bush and tied two longer, stronger ones to the trellis for next year.
And I've just rushed out and put a dry cleaner's polybag over my tender Alstromeria Rock and Roll - just in case.

ps - new mini greenhouse undergoing copious coats of Sadolin ( thank you Mr Namaste) at the moment but should be in situ and ready for "tenders" in a couple more days....

 

well i looked at my garden from the kitchen window! does that count? lol

 

Managed to cut the grass in the front garden as it was almost dry and pull up all the summer bedding just before the rain came in.

 

i moved a fence panel and put some more bricks on top of my black plastic sheeting, not much i know but its soooooooooooooo cold and wet here

 

Today, I ave been mostly sitting in the car

 

It got down to 6C here last night, so spent the day assembling the blowaway greenhouse (considering I wrote on the poles which were what, it took ages!), taping up the slashes where the cats used it for a trampoline, weighting it down, tying it down and filling it. Guaranteed that the weather will warm up again now

 

Struggling to find where to put the 10 tulips "Queen of the Night" and the 30 daffodil bulbs (can't recall the variety) in my rear garden. Thought about a trough .. moved it into situ (pre-planting) disliked the location. But bulbs back into carrier bag until inspiration strikes (Wanders off muttering that I'd rather be shovelling horse manure .... )

 

Checked GH ,alls well in there,planted half a dozen young Buxus then got fed up of the incessant rain and windHung some Spring Greens up for the chooks to play with because they were sulking too

 

@Spruce set me some homework hehe ive sorted out my pots of begonias

 

Cut all the dahlias down to the ground. The black foliage makes me feel very sad.
