What I did today......

Well I didn't get down to the allotment at all but I did get in the garden for a few hours...not my garden but one where I work and I enjoy working there just as much as in my own...So today I started with this.....

A very weedy flower bed.
 And turned it into this......

Grannies bonnet, foxglove, cowslip
A flower bed.
Now doesn't that look so much better??
I think the photos are a little out of focus but I was very pleased with what I got done.
Weather is supposed to pick up tomorrow and heat and sun are supposed to visit my neighbourhood...I guess only time will tell!!!

  3. Woohoo, the sun's shining and it's really rather warm. Perhaps we'll get to spend more time in the garden this week. The flower bed looks so much better after you've worked your magic.

    1. It wasn't exactly a quick make-oever...took a good couple of hours...and I could fit this space into my allotment about 100 times...now that's a scary thought :-{

    1. It was certainly satisfying once I got stuck into it...a bit daunting to start with though.. :-{
