Another day,and another border to replace..This time it was much easier to get the old stuff out,as the back border gets dug over more,than the first one,not as many deep roots,and not compacted.
You will notice,Russell has discarded his lovely blue coat,but is still colour co.ordinated !..must get him some matching gloves :o))
This is the parent Pieris to the one in the other blog,but not as many flowers on this year..must be an age thing,..I know the feeling.!
Acting the fool as usual..in Harry Worth mode today :o)
Think the sun has got to him..Lol
3pm,and all finished,so I am going to do my bit now,and top up the soil,with fresh compost..I like this bit..:o)

Carole,I thought about your Harry,not Harry Worth..Lol,when I was taking the pics..and knew it would make him smile..and a teeny bit jealous of the gloves :o)
The Pieris has always done well,it must be happy there,and no,I haven't done any baking today,in fact,not much of anything,except nice jobs outside.No cooking at all,..Russ went for Fish and Chips for tea .I love days like this..:o)

Beautiful Pieris...I have to say, despite so many others saying the same! lol You make a good team then, working outside in the garden, and Russell on tea patrol too. How good is that!
I like your blue fencing too...very attractive, Bloomer.
14 Apr, 2011
Thanks Terra..I like blue in a garden...Lol.
Cheers Jacquie..we do ok working together..he digs,and makes tea,and I supervise and praise ! it works wonders .:o) Glad you like the Pieris,its one of my favourite plants,and also the fence..It is really a dark Jade green shade,but it does look to have a blue cast in some lights.
By the way,OH has just made me a nice coffee..ooh,he is a good lad ! Lol.
