A good 1.5 hours spent deweeding 3 big rose pots and 5 assorted other pots then topped them all up with a mixture of soil and manure.

2 raise vegetable beds have been de weeded and a bag of manure has been tipped onto and then turned over .

So 4 bags left one more raised fruit bed to do and a big pot that has a dwarf apple tree in is my task for tomorrow.

Time for a cuppa

I have in the past had some Verbascum Olympicum in my garden.

It seems that the seeds lie dormant for some time, and now I have large clumps of them where the original plants were. They look like they are too crowded for them to grow into very large, very tall plants.

The plants that look like they will flower this year, are about twenty inches in diameter. Has anyone got any advice about how to transplant them?

Another hour de weeding the last raised fruit bed and Apple tree pot and then spreading some manure on and around both.

10 strawberry plants have been re homed around the edge of one of our raised bed.

Got one and half bags left .
