                      Patio pointed, everywhere swept, grass cut, plastic greenhouse collapsed for next year (the plastic had been destroyed when we had really bad hailstone earlier in the year) looks a lot bigger now without pots everywhere, too!

                        Fed all the Tomato plants in the Green House, all the containers out in the borders and patio, plus all the roses. Topped up the pond again. Sorted out the numerous empty pots and tray that had collected in the garden work area and then soaked them all in Jeyes Fluid before giving them a scrub. Collected seeds from the drying Poppy seed pods, packaging them and labelling them, collected seed pods from the Lupins. Dead headed the shrub and climbing roses. Put canes in to support a large white Hydrangea and a Crocosmia. Tied up the Clematis, Annual Sweetpeas and Perennial Sweetpeas growing on the Trellis Entrance. And then possibly, just possibly might have discovered a new variety of Day Lily growing in my border which could be exciting if confirmed!
