- Time to start the #Garden2025 posts 🌱 My Hellebore is flowering its little heart out and it's time to chit the seed potatoes as they're already starting to sprout. Pentland Javelin, 1st early Charlotte, salad Desiree, main crop
- A delayed picture of my 1st crocus of the year, taken Wednesday morning as I left the house And my first 2 tomato seedlings through, down last Sunday #Garden2025
- Yesterday my husband built a raised bed stacking our 4 smallest pallet beds. So today I filled it with cardboard, 2 bags of last year's hedge cuttings, home compost & their original filling. I expect it to drop but any excess will go to the next bed #Garden2025
- No chance of gardening last week but we made up for it this afternoon. 1 pallet bed moved and another 2 made. Ran out of time / energy to complete filling the largest one but that's tomorrow afternoon's project 🌱Mar 30, 2025 17:42
- Today I had time to tackle the couch grass as I'm losing the battle in 2 areas; raspberries & 1/4 circle bed. 🌱 Raspberries first. I lifted the plants, kept 7 & washed roots before potting in some old planters Mulched with leaf mould 😍 Covered area in cardboard & pots on top. #Garden2025
- Work continues in the garden. Almost all my seed potatoes in. The bags aren't pretty but they stopped the wireworm last year. L2R Desiree, Charlotte & Pentland Javelin And a spontaneous purchase of a kiwi potted up and added to our mini orchard #Garden2025
- A later start than I'd hoped for today thanks to the rain (but at least I won't need to water tonight) We got more compost for the potatoes so there's now 22 each snuggled up in its own bag. The extra compost was used to pot up the tomatoes and cucumber. #Garden2025 🌱
- And suddenly the #Garden2025 🌱 is full of flowers
- Headed into the front garden while it was in shade. Got almost all the way around before it got too hot. Even #JamieCat moved to find the last bit of shadow
