Here you can see that the roses which I
pruned back severely are still alive and starting to regrow
themselves. Hopefully by this time next year, they will have reached
the top of the framework and be able to either bend over and grow
down or grow up above the arch.
Yes, time to tidy the patio. I have
since placed the stove or chimney pipe and what was once a vacuum
cleaner then a plant pot (Dad, whatever were you thinking of!!) to
the side alley ready to go to the tip. I chopped the grass and swept
up the leaves and soil and debris. I have also moved the plastic tubs
that once held manure.
The flowering onions that I removed
from my 2nd veg plot and placed in front of the rose arch along with
some lemon balm a friend gave me are doing well. I began to dismantle
the mini greenhouse by removing the plastic covering. If it had not
been ripped when falling in a storm last Spring, I could have sold it
or even used it. The great big holes did not make it very protective
though.
As you can see from this view, I have
been busy digging over my veg plots. I already have several crops
planted ~ but as yet only weeds have surfaced. Next, I decided to do
some pond maintenance...
