Not bad for October

That was good timing ! You've been busy. Your autumn garden is lovely.

Better day than here then. Your greenhouse looks packed, all those lovely salad seedlings. You have an allotment too?
Goodness I've missed September, must have a look!

Just back from shopping lol
Your baskets look fantastic wow lots of salad and tomatoes that are looking great like your garden lovely Poker. You will have salad for christmas then.

Sounds like exactly the day I had yesterday. Lovely! Today I’ve started cutting back perennials and weeding. Theres more to do in October than any other time of year!

Your baskets are still looking so good Gnarly, good timing with the mower, did mine Monday and its rained ever since, you sure do like your salad leaves, quite a selection and all growing so well, in fact everything looks good to me, I like the fact you insist on your 15mins, I succeed if my cuppa is partaken indoors, fatal if in the g'house or outside though, lol...

The basket looks terrific, are they the 'saveable' sort or ones that go in the bin? Your Alstomeria is lovely, at first glance I thought is was a Pieris! That's one to look out for, and as for having Red Hot Pokers now, that's amazing, mine are the old fashioned sort and finished weeks and weeks ago. Geums, bought with high hopes, haven't done well for me at all, but perhaps them just need to settle in more, it's such a bright cheerful colour. Having a thing about orange at the moment and plan to have some of the Rudbeckias next year for a 'in your face' splash. You seem to have found lots of colour in the garden still with the flowers and berries.

Well done. You can come and sort my garden out now! lol

Thanks all 3P. Hwyel ,

Siris , no allotment I just snip them when needed and add to my plate .... its the old compost that had the peppers in .
Linclass we all dont sit and look enough .... too much doing lol
Honeysuckle , they may have tubers I will wait and see ?bought as plugs 5 in each , its "peach shades" not orange lol, the Alstomeria rocknroll is catching on slowly a select few have it on here .... it will stay in the greenhouse over winter adds a bit of color

Thanks Linda .... the warmth from the house wall helps ...

A day spent sorting out lots of garden jobs is very satisfying! You got so much done and must have been pleased with the results! I love that last photo with the holly, ivy and red berries.

Here the gales have cleared the lawns of leaves but I am not sure yet where they have all ended up!!

Thanks Wildrose

bits and bobs to sort out but nothing major that cant wait till spring ...

Gg

lots still going on aren't you lucky. it is a testament to your hard work.

You are very kind to say that Seaburngirl appreciated

That really was good timing! You did well.
My begonia baskets still look good but are showing signs of fading back now, they have been excellent all summer.
You certainly like your salad greens .... my toms are finished & greenhouse cleared out.
I've made a start on cutting down perennials but if you're all sorted you'd be welcome here.

Thanks GF begonias have done so well this year .... easily outstrip surfinia petunias and I used to grow them all the time ....

I am packing now lol
