What jobs are we doing in the garden today 2016

And if she was like my mother would be saying some other time "a little bit of dirt hurt no one!"

 

Crikey, that has left a gap @shiney - good idea leaving the stump for the bugs

Nice haul! But ... do save a little space for Shineyland "spontaneous buys"

 

@shiney the tree surgeon wasn't wearing any protection! It only takes one kick from the saw.

Picture five.......I could see something like this .......



But it's to late now.

 

Given how nice it was today I should have been down the allotment but instead I popped to the garden centre and spent the day in our garden. I repotted a few of the plants that definitely needed it, like some salvias. I planted out the three little Echinacea 'Fatal Attraction' that I got end of last year (at the other end of the garden from where my previous one was too fatally attractive and got a fungal disease).

Sowed some poppy, lupin, amaranthus and nasturtium seeds.

The big job has been dividing my Canna which appears to have very, very happily overwintered outside here. I got five bulbs out of the one plant, all potted up now They really grow quickly!

 

Loafing Loofah! Is anything going to replace it Loofah?

 

Hi All,

Layed the path in the greenhouse, Layed the path at the side of where the chickens will go, Layed some blocked outside the greenhouse, cut out and removed some slabs and block around the chickens.
Wanted to get the frame for the coop and run, but I have that much to get rid of there is no room. Need to do about 4 tip runs, but it closed at 2 today, I have next week off, but the weather is filthy and my car is in for new clutch on Wednesday. Not sure how much more I will be able to do next week.

Cut the grass again, weeded the beds and transplanted my sister's rhubarb that my she left me when she moved.
