The Potting Shed

Kathy

As this is the time of year many people are out in the garden I thought it would be good to post our acheivments in here.

I'll post tonight once I've actually done something!

today I pricked out some Ox Eye Daisys - intended to sort out the flower garden around the pond, but just too darn cold and windy. Rescued my cara seed potatoes which the meeces have started to chew. Home for a cuppa now.

I swept all the yew hedge cuttings, mounds and mounds of them. Although it was really windy I was pretty sheltered behind the hedge.
I also cleared some more of the pathways that go all around the secret garden. They are stone chips but you can't see them for moss and overgrown plants.
I'll try and remember to take a couple of photos next time I go.

I just can't get Mr Kathy to use pallets for anything and yet there are so many lying around. He says the wood is just cheap s**t, I think I'll just start using them anyway, he'll see me with a hammer and nails and take over! Cool

No transport today so as the sun is shining I'll start on the outside here. It is a terrible mess since the building was reharled and I've not been able to drum up the impetus to sort it out!

I was hoping to get the sweet peas sown this week but it's snowing so I'm going to wait until it warms up a little more. Weekend and next week forecast is for much warmer temps.
