GARDEN GLIMPSES 14



With the arrival of spring/March, I began my activities in the yard. I have 2 garlic plants, planted late fall, doing well - but decided to pop a few more cloves in, hopefully...

The patch between garlic and strawberry is now filled with garlic. It will be warmer than sitting in the fridge, so hopefully more garlic plants will appear shortly.

Additionally, I had cut brambles, planted poppy seed, trimmed the cotoneaster...

Shortly before hopping off for a weekend in Paris, I trimmed azalea, chopped brambles and cut ivy in the front yard and pre-dug over the veg plot in the back. Here are two shots of the front yard to show the approaching daffodil and tulip explosions, which unfortunately were due to coincide with me trip to Paris.




Also a shot of the camellia to show it is still blooming happily and with many a bud left to go. As I mentioned above, I had dug over the veg plots shortly before my trip. It is only a pre-dig, and another dig over is due prior to planting. I also shall need to remove the bindweed roots.
