What Jobs Are We Doing in the Garden Today... MK2..

morning all
sun is still shinning here, just had a quick wander around my postage stamp and dead headed a few fuschias watered where it needed it

right folks, im off to finish sorting my garage so if i havent posted by tea time send in the rescuers

have a good day

 

The leaves look like a camellia

 

Is it a Gardinia (sp) ?

 

Thank you Loli

 

Potted up the 12 x 1" modules containing Wallflower "Persian Carpet" into 3" pots. Glad I left it til today, it was calm, warm and sunny by the front garden wall and I made a better job of it than I would have done yesterday afternoon. It was cold, gusty and not inviting then. Sowed a seed head of fresh Silene Acaulis seeds from a friend's plant into a small tray of seed compost. A pretty little thing that will fit into my postage stamp plot - somewhere.

 

Oh my goodness

i think i am a hoarder

i have been in that garage nearly all day ( and considering i took half of it into my daughters garage yesterday ) i am amazed i still have more to do

 

Watering,watering,watering....got arms like a chimpcould have got the hose out but one of my pet hates is putting it away....
Oh and tied a support on my 'Olympic sized' tomato...virtually got it under lock and key
Lets hope i don't lose the key eh....:WINK1:

 

I just got underway mowing my front lawn and a huge black cloud came over, the heavens opened and it absolutely poured down for fifteen minutes. I was like a wet rag after getting the lawnmower tucked away. So a good time to break for lunch. An hour or so later I went out to finish the front and did the back after. I hate mowing wet grass!

Watered toms and cu's and picked what was ripe. Cleaned out the bird bath again, the starlings make such a mess of it.

 

Gardenia jasminoides?

 

lashing it down ! water butts are full again i have given up on the garage for today, i reckon a few more hours tomorrow and it should be done it will not beat me

 

Yesterday I popped round my mother-in-law's to tidy her garden (just a bit of weeding and pruning) and then I returned home to pot up 30 or so young perennials; that I've grown from seed this year, into 1 and 2lt pots......

 

well back down the garage for me hopefully i can get to to some planting this afternoon
enjoy your day

 

Finally I've managed to get the supports in for the crocosmia... so things are looking a little tidier (oh dear... just noticed the edging needs work... it is never ending!):



There is a horrid bit of garden I'm working on at the moment... the weed-killer has managed to take most of the nettles out, so I've been out there digging up the roots, brambles and ivy. The area is too ugly to photograph!
