I was determined to get this Banana planted out today .
I cleared lots of Nettles and Brambles , spent ages digging a hole . Nearly killed me ! Stopped for flop on my bed every bit of me aching again , lunch and got straight back out to get it done .
Oh ! My goodness it was so heavy , because I,d left it out in the rain the other day . So now completely out of strength , I had to resort to witchcraft again .
Abracadabra ...........
All I had to do now was clear away the pile of earth that had fallen onto the drive before husband sees it ! The kind of thing that worries him . As if I'd leave it there ! Anyway ...
He also would like me to cut off the withered banana leaves . I know it looks dreadful at the moment , but I would rather wait for it to readjust and get it's roots down . When I see some new leaves coming on it , then I will consider taking off those tatty leaves . If I did it now , it might cause rot to set in .
Need to give it a few weeks to settle in . It will be fabulous !
