Just to record whats happening early season

So here we are at the end of May, just before the flag Irises emerge

Time for some gardening, hey whos got me gloves..GNUts!! meow

But a bit of panic, 2 chicks found struggling on the floor. put one on the widowsil, get the wheelbarrow

This chap looks a bit deshevled

ah that might be mum

ok where to put them

well one managed to fly off after a rest, put the other one here away from cats

ah sun comes out over my neighbors cottage garden

and here’s the poppy’s getting going

buttercup pond

buttercup field

spotted the first flag iris last week

hey Stevie where am I supposed to go now you’ve cleared all the weeds out of the polytunnel?

well I spend the best part of an afternoon arranging me pots to get my perennial border going. And after all that…er not quite right
This is the new strategy of putting 3 or 4 things in one bigger pot rather than repotting forever

ah there we go, now starting to look better (more to add tomorrow ; )

and yes, been busy, this is the new improved cool put aside area, now with loads of space to get stuff going,and or put it aside

Heres the small polytunnel now being used as spares for stuff in the big mega tunnel

The sun bench getting good use

and here’s how things are devolving in the big tunnel

have now dug the rest of it

ah some chicks on the pond

there they are

Ggggrr (get off me leg)

all looking overgrown

looking the other way, the new wideflower/plant section underway

The spare plant bench still going well

and nice to see the sun last week

Poppys out in full

as they overtake the aqualegias

should be a good year for grapes of my older vine

first passion flowers of the year : ) plenty more to come

Just a lovely bit of sun

and here we are this week, the flags are out

plenty more of them to come

see you next time

take care
