    Yawn Yawn Wakey Wakey 2026

    It was a lovely mild, sunny afternoon. I have weeded the Jewel Bed. Tulips and Camassias are coming up and some of the perennials are showing fresh new growth. It just needs mulching.

    Dying Privet Hedge

    The variegated Pittosporum Elizabeth could work well - one of my neighbours has a very attractive hedge of this. I liked @Plantminded's suggestion of a flowering climber for the arch itself, too.
