Yesterday was pretty immense in the garden:
Front beds had some sunflowers put in to replace the (mysteriously) damaged ones.
Also planted some pansies (got enough from seed!!) in the useless front bed that will probably suck the life from them. If they work, it'll spruce up the drive a little.
Pruned the wisteria so it no longer looks like it's trying to gain entry to our house.
Replanted most of the pots on the front step to tidy things up a little.
Attempted to annihilate an ant colony on the front step.
Potted up some:
Pansies,
More pansies,
Sweet peas (bushy type)
A random rudbeckia
'Honesty'
Planted out:
A rudbeckia in the climbing frame bed.
Three 'honesty' (Lunaria Annua) in the rose bed, around the drain.
Sunflowers in the bed next to the rose bed.
Also:
Made up the four wedding-anniversary-present-chairs from Anna's parents.
Tidied the sideboard of solution a little.
Sadly, although there are still plenty left, many of the pansy seedlings died while we were away, because I forgot to put them on the table (where they'd get rained on) and so they dried and died. Oops.
You're sounding busy Nick! Hope you are all ready before little one arrives x
