Yawn... Wakey Wakey...!!! #3

Good morning all my friends hope everyone is OK and well ,you all have a lovely weekend and please stay safe

 

Good morning everyone,

I've not had much time to get on here lately as we are so busy. We have people coming today to pick up their hanging baskets that Mrs shiney has been doing for them - about 10, I think. She'll be going off to someone's garden this weekend to plant up their tubs as well and someone else is coming to pick up about 50 plants today. This will give more room in the greenhouse that Mrs shiney is desparate for :gnthb:

I spent another 5 hours finishing off the pressure hosing yesterday :thumb: and I shall just give everything a quick rinse just before open day. I'm not too happy with the way some of the paving has cleaned up as fungi/lichen that won't come off :(.

I noticed the other day that we must have had a deer in the garden as the tops of the tallest tulips had been nipped off . I don't think it could be rabbits as there is no damage to the stems at all and they couldn't get the flowers without pulling the stems down - and no sign of damaged leaves around the tulips where they would have to stand. I have built my own defences to further incursions and they seem to be working :yho:


Have a great day :D

 

Good morning all my friends Hope that you are all OK and feeling good on this beautiful Sunday morning in May,The Sun is out ,the sky is Blue,I am a little late this morning slept like the proverbial Log,everyone have a great day and please stay safe

 

Good morning everyone,

Another beautiful day out there that will allow us to get things done :thumb:. We have had a couple of disasters in the garden with a very large fuschia bush (6ft high and 4ft diameter) die over the winter and right next to it a ceanothus about the same size appears to be dead. Three weeks ago the ceanothus was in full leaf and covered in flower buds. Now, all the leaves and flowers are dry and brittle :(.

I've chopped down the fuschia (heavy duty loppers managed most of it but the stump will have to be removed in the winter) but left the ceanothus for the moment and given it a very heavy watering. If it has to go then it will need a saw taken to it.

The people collecting their plants yesterday took longer than we planned because Immigration Officer Oscar had to check that they were suitable people to be allowed in k-l and Customs Officer Oscar had to check every plant before it was taken out of the garden.

Have a great day :gnthb:
