Phew.... Finally got a few days of sun (and bitterly cold temps) and got out in the garden. Tidied up the pots, and removed all of the dead roots and leaves. Planted out the last of the early bulbs. Cleaned out the bird feeders and made a bird bath for my feathery friends. Also made a new bird box out of an old teapot and added it to the collection.
Planted out a new rose bush & heather, both in containers.
Sown tomatoes, chillis, peppers & broccoli in the spare room and created a seed timetable for all of the spring and summer blooms & veggies.
Planted out Onions, Garlic & Ginger in the new raised bed/hessian vegetable bags.
Set up a new herb patch ready for later in the year, as well as transplanting the mint, rosemary and oregano plants.
Made a new garden table out of a cable reel and some rope 😲 (I'm getting all creative this year).
Oh... and fixed the shed roof after the winds a week or so ago & re-erected the greenhouse.
Lots of plans this year!Keeping track of my gardening antics, success, failings & faux pars https://mytinyenglishcountrygarden.wordpress.com

Bought some seaweed fertiliser (for raised beds), some potato fertiliser and some seed potatoes. King Edwards for maincrop, red Duke of York for earlies.
Just need to buy some containers today.
Sadly, my propagator hasn't arrived yet despite ordering on Monday.

Went to Homeb@se to buy some sand for siting my pond liner - they had a load of split bags they were selling off for a pound each - result! Also bought some compost for the first sowings. I'm not doing any early sowings under lights this year, thought I'd just take it easy. No sowing till March 1st.He-Pep!

Pulled up some zucchini and tomato plants which aren't producing. Planted some bean seeds and a couple of zucchini and cucumber seeds. It's been a shocking summer for the garden, but this is the last chance to plant vine type stuff this season.
Harvested golden shallots. I wouldn't bother growing them again.

Dug out a few more roots and grass from new bed.
Finished emptying one side of compost bin.
Tidied and weeded sunflower tub.
Stood up stones separating lawn and path, that have been flattened by playing puppies.
Split some fire wood.
Redesigned ( for the second time this week! ) the money box for my little plant sales barrow.
