Bless - I love the apple blossom. It's the best that it's been for years. I know that last year the runner beans got away from me - they grew like crazy and the trellis will not be tall enough! M may be worried about how enthusiastic they are. Forgetting the dry cleaning that I had gone to get is normal for me.
Eileen - we currently have four very small gooseberry bushed planted in each corner of the centre square. I think I need to water and feed them and perhaps I'll get some decent gooseberries next year. I got them last year from Aldi and they survived my neglect. I think I will just get some generic supermarket bedding plants. Then runner beans on the wall that's currently empty and massive amounts of lavender under the study window. We had a huge bank of it years ago, but had to get rid of it when we had the windows replaced. I've dug out a pic
That was years ago, I think in 2018. It was almost extra security. No-one was likely to try and climb in those windows as the bees were always so active there.
Speaking of plants, I nipped out to stretch my wheels, called in at Morrisons and took this pic in the car park.
According to the Google image search, it's probably Giant Hogweed. I told bear this, and he thought it was amazingly cool. Apparently the blisters you get can last up to ten years. I'll give Morrisons a ring tomorrow to let them know that they may want to get it cleared.
And other plant news - the honeysuckle seems happy with the new trellis on the other side.
I'm now checking the weather forecast for rain, to see if I will need to water the garden. I'm more used to checking for driving conditions.
Writing stuff - today's flash fiction is here.
Hugs and good health to all.
Ouch - that plant doesn't sound too safe!
ReplyDeleteI hope you're doing better than us. We've had rain showers for the last two days but not enough so I'll have to water the garden later on tonight ... I putting it off for as long as possible in the hope that there'll be a heavier shower so I can be excused watering duties!
ReplyDeleteYour honeysuckle seems very happy with the new trellis! :)
