Saturday 2 April 2011

Oh, just a boring old update.

I keep realising that I set this up so that I could read what I did last year and learn from it.
So far, I haven't read last year's entries, and certainly haven't learnt from all last year's mistakes.
Anyway, latest projects include:
Sorting out the irises, which had been left to slump all over the garden for winter, so needed a drastic haircut before the new growth came up.  Caught them just in time a couple of weeks back.
Sowing sweet peas in the bed by our 'front' wall.  Staffordshire compost and a bit of seed compost too.
Having Anna build a mini greenhouse (is that a shocking thing to say?)  It was altogether altruistic - she was clearing my garden detritus out of the kitchen :)
Build climbing frame.
Sow herbs in golden syrup tins.  (Still not much success - causes some confusion)
Hoeing places (now there's a blog title for later...)
Employing a gardener (is that cheating?)
Wishing my tiny mind could remember all the other things
