What Jobs Are We Doing in the Garden Today... MK3.. 2013

Gave the lawn it's first cut, tidied the garden, cut the edges, weeded, and painted the front face of my new gates.



thought I'd attach a pic of the driveway that we had done. Grass, well weeds, gone!

 

Potted on more Chilli's and planted my onion sets

 

Samantha Whalen, glad you enjoyed gods own country....Cornwall. Usually bit warmer than it was today but I guess everywhere is cold at moment

 

i adore cornwall, we went last yr too on a camping trip to lizard, i seen foxglove growing wild and now i have them in my garden, as my very own peice of cornwall, this is where ill retire to. or win the lottery n buy a little small holding, that would be my dream.

 

thanks shiney,
considering its its first winter (the garden) i'm very happy with it. the green things have stayed green an awl!! :-)

 

2 1/2 hours pruning roses this morning was quite enough with that lazy east wind blowing. Have come home to warm up and found the mail order plants
I'd ordered have arrived - off to play in the (heated) greenhouse this afternoon.

 

Unfortunately I ended up in the shed most of the time (unheated) because that is where I do my potting up etc - no room for such luxuries in my minute GH.

 

Good luck with that - clay's not the kindest of materials at the best of times but when it's waterlogged, ugh! I suppose you could pile the soil from one half on top of the other half, lift the liner, fill in that side then do the other half the same way so you don't have to mess up the rest of your garden with all that wet clay?

 

Started to sow some seeds to go in my propagator, working in the garage, my fingers nearly broke off with the cold, luckily my son called in with my grandson,Sam and that gave me a good reason to get back in the house. They have just left, so its too late to any more work, so just off to make my tea.

 

Been hid away in my GH sowing anything i can get my hands on

 

is it heated Loli?

 

Never known moss like it - no surprised given how wet its been. I put some Iron Sulphate on the lawns today ... I'll let you know if that has loosened the moss in a few days, and if they look the colour of artificial grass

Did you find my shirt with the missing button then?

 

Is it heated .....it's warmer than the house
