how was your weekend ?..

great work joan , looking so different to when you first started, so neat to, sweetpeas should look lovely over the shed to, i like your slate signs to, all looking great , you didnt bury hubby did you, i see empty boots there lol

wow!! i love what you've been doing! I wish our garden looked like that, we are planning on raised beds for veg, but if you look at my pics, you'll see we have a blank canvas atm....lots of work to do, but if we can get ours looking like yours, it'll be worth it! I like the idea of the sweetpeas covering your shed! They're one of my favourite, we've just planted some to grow over an archway at our front door :)

It all looks so tidy! I bet its taken hard work to get that far. A weekend well spent!! :)

thanx san, no didnt bury hubby need him for heavy work lol ..:o)

lol joan, thats good thinking joan ;o))

thanx Emma,its not a garden its an allotment we have 2 but this one we got in Jan this year the other plot is raised beds and far easier to look after ,we have both worked hard but hope it will be worth it ..im off to look at your pics.
;O))San.

You have transformed the plot ... love your daughters wellies ! Clever idea to grow Sweet Peas against the shed ... I've put mine in the garden today and just hope the mouse/slugs leave them alone ! The Cabbage and Caulis look nicely protected from the Pigeons ... they were a real pest when we had an allotment. Your slate signs are lovely. : o ) )

Lots of hard work gone on there Joan, it's looking very tidy.

It all looks great Joanella, you`ve put a lot of work into it, lets hope all your crops do well, my son has a flowerbed in front of his shed in the allotment and last year the flowers were fantastic, probably partly due to the protection of the shed at their backs, lets hope it works that good for you. Natty idea making labels out of the slate, you would pay a lot to buy them so well done plus they won`t blow away......

hi Megan ,thanx for your comments,i love sweetpeas,i have put the nets up mainly to deter cats as they use the beds as litter trays ,there are a few that come on, not too bad with pigeons though..
thank you PG i follow OH round picking up his tools and bits of wood ,nails etc ..lol
cheers Lincs,glad your sons flowerbed worked well it brightens up a space..i just saw a piece of slate and scratched a plant on with nail now ive got one for all my veg lol..

Your allotment is coming on a treat! I wish that Gerry & I had our allotment looking anything like yours!

I've just started a new blog on the allotment & will publish it in a few days' time.
