The big garden tidy up

Looking great Poppy!
Envy you having a greenhouse and the appropriate winter climate for it.

Thanks Lil
The greenhouse is a lovely place to drink tea in the winter!!! Come and join me for a cup!

It looks Fantastic Pop ....... Cup of tea and a penguin biccy.

The kettle is on Pimpernel!!

your garden looks really good, it rained all day here so i think you did well to take the opportunity to clear the garden!!

Well you've been busy! Nice and tidy! lots of nice plants still flwoering :) I need to clean out my shed..oh dear..one day..

All looking very good, obviously you have green fingers, looking at the quality of your foxgloves etc, we would love a greenhouse but it would take up too much of the garden.....

Thanks Sticki, Pixi and Dd, I didn't show you the before photo of the greenhouse. It was all a bit of mess. Nice to have it all tidy, but don't know how long it will stay that way. Its my hidy place in the winter when I want to get away from the OH!! sssh dont tell him....!

lol I cant even get into my shed at the moment! Still full of cement etc from Clay! and loungers jsut chucked in! Will take me a whole day to sort through all that lol

Its all looking neat and tidy Poppy, my greenhouse doesn`t stay that way for long either, once it gets cold its very often too easy to just pop things into them rather than unlocking the sheds, I like to spend time in mine as well, my bolthole when I need time on my own lol.....

That would be so nice if I could join you Poppy! Would be there in a flash on a cold winter day.

looking great PoppyL I really love that camellia!!!!!

YOU ARE DOING VERY WELL. EVERYTHING LOOKS GOOD.

Thanks everyone for your lovely comments. Its nice to get it looking nice, but I know whats coming. Nextdoor neighbours large sweet chestnut trees, yet to shed their leaves! - ready for battle!! Thank goodness for the blower.

It's all looking good Poppy and I just adore your butterfly wall art.

You've been busy ..

Tidy'd my greenhouse out the other day and bubble wrapped it for the winter.

Thank you for sharing this with us, you have been busy. I love your butterfly wall decoration too.

what a lovely interesting blog..and no wonder you are happy with your efforts its all looking great for next year..thanks for sharing

Thankyou Meadowland, Digginfit, Terratoonie, Clarice, Xela and Skipscandal, It makes me feel quite virtuous to get all my tidying done. I'll probably be back up the Garden Centre again tomorrow looking for something else to plant or get on with!! I love sharing with you all. So nice to have other people to talk to about gardening!

You've done a lot. I'm glad you're pleased with it all. You've got some lovely plants, and they're all doing well. Good luck with your plans for next year :o)

Hi Poppy,

I Simply love your garden... its very difficult to maintain a garden like yours.... thumbs up... I did not see any Aloe Vera plants in any of your pictures. If you don't have I highly recommend you to grow some plants.

I have a small space outdoor, so I have grown some Aloe Vera plants which is said to be a miraculous plant for its healing properties internally & externally.

Please visit my blog in few days as I will be giving more information about the plant based on my readings.

Anyway best of luck & please do continue your green work.

love the Nature & the Nature will love you :)

Hello Hywell, thanks for the lovely compliment. My plans for next year are what I'm hoping will keep me occupied and happy through the winter.
Hello Sheriff How kind of you, I'm glad you like my garden. It has been asleep for a long time and I'm just beginning to wake it up again. I'm a typical gardener always looking forward to next year. I will look out for your blog. Aloes are interesting plants but I don't know too much about them.
