Garden Catch Up

Sorry, been slacking on the blogging again. I've been getting out and about more with the sproglets ,thanks to some different painkillers, so not as much time in front of the PC ;)

Here's what's been happening over the last few weeks...

We've removed the hydrangeas from the front garden and replaced them with blackthorns. We just didn't like the bulky hydrangeas so we swapped them for something we can make sloe gin with ;)

The herb bed is starting look busy again.

The hops are starting up again. This year, there will be beer! Oh yes!

We've done lots of erm essential lawn maintenance ;)

Wonderhubby has made a raised bed from an old pallet. I'll do a seperate post with a how-to for this soon.

We've put together another compost bin that we were gifted from freecycle. We're up to 3 bins and a green cone now.

I've bought two teeny tiny barganous lime trees. They're living on the kitchen windowsill at the moment :)

We've been going out for lots of walks to find puddles to splash in :)

The ladybirds are waking up :)

We've been gifted a lovely swing seat from freecycle. It needs a bit of repair work, but we're enjoying it :)

Lots of nommy purple sprouting broccoli to nom on

Lots and lots of seed sowing.

Good job I've got a little helper.

We hav giant bees! This one was rescued from the greenhouse (it had to be rescued from there because I didn't dare go in till it came out) *shudder*

Three little goji berry plants, these have already doubled in size.

So there you go, all up to speed. I'll be doing some more detailed blog posts soon so watch this space :)
