What Jobs Are We Doing In The Garden Today 2019

Hello lovely people!
I wasn't sure where to post my query, so I am putting it here in this thread if that's ok?
I have a hosta in a pot which has grown well the last several years (despite an endless battle with slugs and snails) and am thinking of planting it out in the garden. The spot where I think it will thrive is in semi shade, the soil is fairly good but possibly a bit dry, with several large herbacious plants nearby.
Do you think it's a good idea, and if so is now a good time to do this?
Thanks muchly!

To stick to the theme of this thread, I shall wrap up warm and gather up leaves for the compost... an neverending task, I fear.

 

Clear out finished tomatoes and peppers from green house, rake up nicely wet leaves and put in dumpy bag to rot. Then plant out broad bean plants that have been hardening off for the past week.

 

Got quite a lot done yesterday. Cleared all remaining spent summer bedding.,cut back all the Dahlias and will cover each one with a bucket of mulch today. I have Googled myself cross eyed and have decided to chance leaving them in the ground this year.Also did the daily leaf collection too. Had time ( during the really heavy downpours) sorting the greenhouse as well.

 

One of my favourite songs. I have the Postcard Album which I think it is on.

High Wycombe ... used to work there.

 

Oooh thank you shiney for your reply. Most helpful.
I like the idea of splitting it to make new plants. It never ocurred to me to do that.

 

I chop hostas with a spade they are tough plants , like shiney said @pattie they will be fine but if your a bit worried about it being on the dry side ( hosta do prefer moist / wet condition ) dig in some compost / manure / leaf mold / other organic matter even old compost can help retain moister ,

 

The sun out with a frost but I've got a list of jobs to do longer than my arm so I'll get motivated and get out there. First job dig out the very large white currant my back aching thinking about it , its being re homed round the back of the shed with the raspberries.

 

Scraped up a load of moss from behind the dogs kennels. Then swept up even more pine flowers? from the pine tree. The tree shades the kennels but it also shades behind the kennels so the moss grows well there.

Put the shelter up around the Butia - polycarb sheets to go on when the weather cools further. Its amazing how wide the trunk of the butia has got over the years, considering this is a slow growing palm.

Back out after a bite to eat to tidy up the tropical area which looks anything but tropical right now.
