Default Busy..

Whew, had a busy weekend, cleared out most of the common orange Monrovia,
now I can see the borders again, got 4 bin bags full, all gone to Freecycle,
Re modelled the side borders, and enlarged them, now they are edged with
upright odd pieces of nice Yorkshire stone, and odd bits, look like broken
teeth, but quite attractive, its all been weeded, and am halfway through the
tonne of compost that was delivered last week, Instead of a shower tonight,
think I will take a long relaxing bath...

forgot to add, filled new compost bin up...old dustbin with hole cut in
bottom, next door having extension built, no time for gardening, so I am
using their green wheelybin as well as my own, with twigs and branches.

I love it too, its just it doesn't flower when its so crowded together, I'm
giving the remaining lot some space! Having Rhododendrons cut back this
week as well, let the lower plants see what daylight looks like!!
