BUSY, BUSY, BUSY....

I’ ve had a good day in the garden, its been a tad chilly but nothing a good gardening jumper couldn’t fix.


Potato’s all planted in this area…


A half row of beetroot and spring onions in this space behind my greenhouse ( I intend to move the rose elsewhere, just haven’t figured out where to put it yet but must get it done, lol) when I have moved it I’ll be able to pop the rest of my seeds in, doing them in easy stages, at least they’ll be staggered, thats my excuse and I ’m sticking to it…

I have lettuce and onions already in my square bed, lots of big fat pigeons residing in the hedge so have to take precautions…


New rhubarb, only been in 4 days and already doing well, I spent years getting rid of a huge crown from under my apple tree only to be asked this year by my daughter if we could have some more as its delicious, (owt for a quiet life is one of my motto’s she wants raspberries as well!!!! lol.


Dicentra’s saying hello in the garden and the pot..

Peony glowing against the fence…

Delphiniums doing well, as you can se mine don’t get eaten by the slugs…

Aquillegia’s popping up all over but this one is miles ahead of the rest..

After a very slow start things are now moving on in the g’house, in view of the weather its probably a good thing though as I could have ended up with leggy seedlings through lack of light…..


Its not all green I do have some colour as well…

Gorgeous Harry…

Sadly he has not been seen since Easter, we have posted flyers and put him on the local Lost Pets page, we keep going out to look for him but no luck yet……….

Its surprising how dry it all was Paul so I'm glad its raining, they'll all gallop along now, just don't want it like last year, yes I like ajuga and its a lovely shade of blue when in flower as well.

Things are popping up Lincs. it is so nice to see and at least you have been able to plant up some veg! It is still far too cold down here to do anything yet........oh we do need a warm spell. Sorry you have lost Harry, that is sad.

Your plants are coming along well Lincs, so sorry that Harry is missing I hope you find him safe and well soon.

I'm so sorry to hear about Harry. I hope you find him. He's lovely. Is he an elderly cat ?
It's such a worry with pets but I find it impossible to live without a cat.

Sorry not to comment on your plants but my mind is full of CAT at the moment - much more important than a few leaves.

Blowing up a gale today, not cold but still a bit rough for gardening so had a lazy day, lol..
Thankyou all Harry is 10yrs old and does belong to my daughter, he seems to have disappeared off the face of the earth, we have been around lots of times, he is not a wanderer normally and has been neutered, we are wondering if he has been in an accident that has not been reported..........

Hywel you have no need to apologize to me, I fully understand and know what you mean, when we lost Malik I was devastated, we all were even Morgan, I was adamant that I didn't want another pet but home wasn't the same and I needed another pal of my own, Brynner has never replaced my boy and we didn't expect him to, he is important and loved for himself, but he is a great comfort who now knows my secrets and keeps me company.... Even after all this time I often have Malik Moments........

Looks like you have been working hard and the garden is rewarding you. Sorry Harry is missing he looks so lovely sitting on his seat.

14 Apr, 2013

 

All looking great and I'm hoping Harry is returned safe and sound. I'd be going out of my mind with worry!

Nice to see the spring at last isn't it Lincs, I love those anemones and drumstick primulas. I suppose it's because we don't get those shades so often in the spring. I do hope there is good news about Harry soon, he really is beautiful:-)

So, Sue , spring has sprung at last ! lol ! I love the water feature ! Your borders look great and how come your Delphiniums don't get eaten ! You have a lot going on in your green house too. Its sad about your cat, though. I hope he turns up. I would be worried if our two disappeared. Thanks for sharing.
