Does this week resonate of summer?

Very productive week Tetra....you're a good team getting everything tidied up. Even your bulbs planted up. Enjoy the sunshine :)

appologies accepted tetrarch. been a mixed bag most of the week. supposed to be good at the weekend. I hope so need to do some major tidying up after the builders.

You have my complete sympathy SBG, we are going to have new wall built down side of the house..necessary, but the thought makes me cringe...
Are you not having any sun J?

Mixed weather here, but like you have managed to plant up a herb garden, move the big urn and plant, plant the bulbs, put in stepping stones through the lawn, move plants in the jungle and make a new path, take up some slate, move it and put down some new gravel, move the mulch from back garden to front garden..........needless to say the housework has gone to pot!! at the moment we are ahead with the planned jobs, only two large ones left and then hopefully we can relax.

Blimey Daisy, you,ve done more than us! Housework?? I gave most of that up years ago by buying a small house lol!

Yep...sunshine with just the odd interruption of cloud, slight breeze and a trip to the GC today, Tetra. Purchases.....(plant, piccies & blog tomorrow).

Dotty....you've worked your little socks off...housework is for rainy days. You've sure shifted a lot of material today though...whew!

What a lovely blog, beautifully written too.
I agree about the weather, more of the same for the next few days too :-))))

I'm glad you've had some nice weather and glad you could make the most of it aswell :o)
We haven't lol. Could you send some westwards please :o)

Crikey you've been busy Tetrarch !!!!!its that time of year, I've been busy digging out a new border at bottom of garden, so digging up turf, why does it always look more when you dig it up?taken me 3 days and done about half, so hoping the weather holds out till I get it done, I'm so impatient just want to get it planted, have lots of new plants either bought or grown from seed all ready to go in :-)

Your right Simbad..a race against time..last bit of warmth in the earth to settle in the plants..so annoying when you stare at pots full of plants in the pouring rain!
Thats exciting, a new border..when you catch your breath you must tell us what you are planting.

J, do tell us what you bought when you return! Hywell, Louise is right..a gorgeous weekend for the west..you included!!

Wheyhey! When digging up a bit of garden couple weeks back, found some old tubers from a dwarf alstroemeria I planted three years back..haven't seen it for last two year, assumed it died.
Well I chucked the tubers in a pot stuck a label on saying red dwarf Alstro..and guess what??? Leaves have appeared!

Success, Tetra....what a great find! I've done a blog btw, Tetra "Getting Started" I think I called it.

Im so glad, especially as it was a bargain...hate losing out on bargains!! Yes J I have read your blog, and cant wait for the next stage..
