At least two weeks ago. Probably four weeks. Poor moppets… ah well they are in now. Haven’t planted them in this bed before – if they catch up then they will screen the view through the garden gate of the poly-tunnel.

Daisies are go go go
Planted out some more ox-eye daisy plants along the drive today. These had over-wintered in cell trays and been potted on into 3″ pots a few weeks ago. They grew quickly after a winter of neglect and I planted them out in groups of four, after removing a spade-square worth of turf and/or daffodil bulbs. I think I have about 40 clumps now in total. I hope to see a few more of them flowering this year.

Greenhouse days are the happy days
Sowed sweet peas, cosmos, Black-eyed Susans and cornflowers.

Digging over half of hot bed nearest stream. Reducing clumps of rudbeckia and crocosmia. Sharp sand onto delphinium and lupin crowns.

Perennials chopped back in second pastel bed.
Yesterday’s photos
Cutting down perennials in first pastel bed. Basically, two hours of doing squats: my thigh muscles are not talking to me this morning.
