It gets quite warm in the woodshed and the roof is clear corrugated plastic , so there is light .
A couple of tomato plants are still producing fruits .
You can feel the temperature drop after the sun has gone down .
The Dahlias finally putting on a show after we had some rain .
I will be leaving these Dahlias in the ground over winter . If I can manage , I will try and get a mulch over them .
I would like to add some orange ones into the mix next year .
Black Eye Suzies have now filled the teepee . Not a very good pic as I can't very easily walk across the muddy grass on my walking frame at the moment .
Agave salmiana var . ferox .
I wonder if it will flower next year . It is quite big now .
I hope all is well with you . Love and hugs Debbie x
I hope you are healing well, glad to see you are still getting pleasure from your garden.
ReplyDeleteThankyou . I have to try and not do so much for a while . 💐🦋🐞
DeleteWe used to leave dahlias in over winter. We covered with black plastic - as our soil usually is very wet and soggy in winter - and mulched with a pile of straw. It was so warm underneath that one time bees set up a nest. WE stopped doing it as the beds became compacted due to not being dug over.
ReplyDeleteStraw might be the best thing for the time being though . 💐🐝🐝
