Tree branch with green oval shaped fruits among the leaves.
Apricot fruits developing nicely. May thin to keep good circulation around the fruits. #growyourown
Hyacinth flowers in a variety of colours from pale pink to deep purple with some pale yellow as well.
Put some old bulbs into pots to see what would happen. Hyacinths doing quite well. #bloomscrolling
A long double line of green plastic tubes. Each tube contains a native hedging plant.
100metres of hedging complete! Fingers crossed it grows now.
Yet, traditionally the day you would plant your potatoes.
Results as expected so maybe not that exciting. 7 ladies in calf.
Chopping it down is the order of the day! I was going to chop it anyway as it had reached the apex of the ceiling. Might try and strike cuttings though.
Large yucca plant lying on its side. Other houseplants can be seen.
Had a bit of a disaster with the tall yucca. It decided to fall over last night, luckily stopped by the balustrade. Now need to decide what to do with it. #houseplants Picture doesn't really show how tall the yucca is.
Trying not to think about the garden jobs until hedging and cattle jobs done.
Tired, certainly!
Lots of green tubes in grass. Each tube contains a native hedge plant and bamboo cane. Larger tube has an oak tree. Bit of wood is for spacing plants.
Made a start on the hedge planting.
Trugs of hedge plants surrounded by other plant containers.
Looks like next job will be hedge planting! Good mix of natives. Will hopefully connect two bits of woodland when established.
Shorts and t-shirt all week here on the costa del fife.
A green trug containing sticks of freshly picked rhubarb with large leaves still attached.
1st pick of the rhubarb. Timperley Early living up to its name. #growyourown

ITALIA! Was really impressed with how they went about it.
At the moment. Few friends have offered to help but that requires co-ordination!
