Beautiful Morning !

 

                          Up and out into the garden 7am . Wow ! The Sun !

                       Filled that wheelbarrow with weeds .

Spread the two year old woodchip mulch .

 

I'm trying hard to replenish the good earth after months of storms and relentless rain .

I feel I can never make enough of this  .

I need to move some of these Echiums while they are still small and replant them in other locations in the garden .

Camelia "Water Lily " Is in full bloom now .  So lovely !

Took off a couple more leaves of wind damaged Chamaerops . Looks much better now . 

Completely forgot about breakfast ! 

........but when I came in , I made up for that by cooking enough for the next few days .

And half of the flan will be going over to my daughter  and also boiled enough potatoes for mash today and roast potatoes tomorrow . Ricardo would have roast potatoes everyday if he could !

Anyway ,

 This week I have splurged out on a bag of Shallots .

And got them planted out straight away  ...in the rain .

Put grids over them while they are getting their roots down .

I took up the rest of my Leeks . We've eaten the best of them . 

These are a bit small but we will use them . These are L. Musselbroro 

 I have already sown L.Bleu de Solaise and L. Jaune de Poitou up in the shed . 

 Did a bit more weeding  and a gentle bit of digging  . I have Kale seedlings waiting in the shed to go in here . 

I will throw down some chicken pellets to give the good earth a little boost .

                                     🌿Beautiful moss 🌿

A reduced pot of Parsley from the supermarket made me happy .

I split it up and planted them all out .

They were not happy about it !    But I think they'll pick up in a few days ! Fingers crossed 😄

I need to give the Chives some better protection , Something 🐰 has been enjoying nibbles ! 🌿

Brought more wood in and got  the fire going . It is cold this evening with the clear skies .

Pleased with the new fencing , I have to sew on some windbreak mesh . What is that spooky little green light thing ? 🟢  Fairies ....Cornish Piskies ? 

  ☀️  It's going to be lovely again tomorrow .....the nice checkout assistant in Sainsburys said so ! ☀️

                            

                                      Love and Peace  🤍🕊️
