What Jobs Are We Doing In The Garden Today 2020

Done nowt on account of bad weather and today a piggin migraine

 

Managed to hobble into the greenhouse this morning..( still waiting for xrays, can't believe that this is just one of my arthritic flare ups...they don't normally last 10mths with no let up).. Potted up some of my Fuchsia cuttings, leaving a few to grow more established roots. Added a tier to the yoghurt pot potted Sweet Peas. Checked over the Lemon Tree for scale insects...none. Watered the Heuchera cuttings and any other plants that also required some. Potted up some bulbs that I found sprouting in the greenhouse.....no idea what they are. Surprise, surprise!!!

 

Sorry to hear that @Snorky85 , take it easy and I hope it eases up a tad for you sooner rather than later.. .... sadly they know how to hang on for dear life!

 

Thanks upsy, hope you get ur xrays sooner rather than later tooxxx

 

Us gardeners are a healthy lot, aren't we? Get well soon everyone!

 

...dread to think what I'd be like without it!!!

 

Yesterday started cutting the old leaves from the hellebores and dead headed the roses that are still flowering.

 

Yes, hope all poorlies/strugglers and aching ones feel better soon.
Now have I mentioned my sciatica, bloomin' painful, so it is?!

I was reminded the other day whilst listening to a gardening programme on the radio to clean bird feeders regularly, which I do... but also mentioned was bird baths. Now hand on heart, I cannot remember the last time I scrubbed mine!
As it's a clear, bright day, no rain for a change, I wrapped up warm, dashed outside with hot soapy water in a bucket and scrubbing brush, I gave the old stone birdbath a good clean. The top comes off, so I thought to lift it off and place it somewhere sunny. Boy, it was heavy, nearly did myself a mischief.
Well, if you do nothing else today in the garden, do give all the feeders, bird tables and baths a good clean to keep the bird population healthy and happy.
All the best everyone, in all your endeavours today.

 

Yesterday and today cut off the old leaves on some of the hellebores, the flowers are starting to come up.

 

Yes I've had that for me the best thing is walking,

 

Hi all, I haven't done much over the past couple of weeks due to weather, Christmas and other stuff. The little I have done.... cleaning the bird feeders and keeping them filled. Deadheading the last few remaining flowers and checking on the tenders in the greenhouse. Clearing leaves. Not half as much as I'd like. I hope everyone is well and keeping safe. Hopefully I'll be back on here a little more now. I've missed it
