Garden.. getting there

 A survivor! It does need to be planted in a permanent bed, but a fairly deep pot has done the trick.

Slow progress in the greenhouse. Over the past couple of days I have been re sowing seeds because of sketchy germination,  but others have started to move at last as the weather warms up. 

Blogger Steve in London, I have sown another batch of your Red Lupin seed. Last Winter killed off the few survivors of the first ones that I grew from your saved seeds and luckily I still had some seeds left in the envelope in my seed store...an old fridge!

We have done a little more on the new compost bins this afternoon.. slowly deconstructing small pallets to get timber to make a removable slatted front.

I am slowly sorting out the ravages of winter...repotting shrub cuttings, cleaning out pots, trying to get the garden look a bit less neglected and less of a dump. 

We are getting things together for a run to the Cowp...the tip as some would call it, the recycling centre really! Since Covid we have to book a time, not just go as and when...and when we do we will take our council bags..cost £2...and collect four bags of the compost that they make from the green waste that people take there.  Four bags is the limit..and you wouldn't want to carry more than that..but you can book to pick up four bags as many times as you like!!

So the garden progresses...and keeps us occupied very nicely..and hopefully will feed us later on.
