What are we doing in the garden 2025

Crikey @Obelix-Vendée I shreek whenever I encounter one of our many frogs and I like them. Dead or not, you’d have heard me in France if I came across a snake in the garden

 

The little collared doves are now a regular feature here @Selleri . Lovely wee things.
I cut my grass yesterday too @pete , but ours needs cut every week as we have the opposite situation - more warmth, and we always have enough rain, so it's growing like mad!
I took some cuttings of the heather on the outside boundary, which I've been meaning to do for ages, and pricked out some rudbeckias that I decided to sow earlier this month, although it's doubtful they'll do anything. The slugs ravaged the ones sown in spring, which is a PITA, so I don't have many looking like flowering. Other than that, not a lot...
Today is to be wet in the morning, and I have to go out, so I'll see what can be done later on.It'll mainly be deadheading, so I might get in the shed and do a some sorting out in there.

Glad you got your arm set properly @Logan . Sometimes they have to do it again, but that's better than it not being right and having worse problems later on.

 

I always think collared doves look very polite and genteel. We have a pair, Ernest and Albertine, who frequently visit and they often walk down the main path side by side

 

@shiney, time for you both to put your feet up?? I'm seriously impressed.

 

Sounds like a perfect morning. I wouldn't know what to say to blackberries though.

 

We were away overnight Wednesday for Granddaughter's graduation. Watered all the pots heavily before we went. I cut the grass for the first time in weeks last evening on our return. I went to plots this pm and Mrs AB is watering the pots again now.
Today's pickings from the plots.

 

Thank you @fairygirl, nothing much just watering and picking red currants from the same bush, they're never ending.

 

I think you have your 5-a-day encompassing the full rainbow there, @Allotment Boy.

 

Very nice assortment there @Allotment Boy
It's annoying when you want to get on with various jobs at this time of year, isn't it @Logan ?
I still have problems with my right arm due to the rotator cuff injury [about 6 or 7 years ago] which means I often can't hold my arm up for any length of time, especially if I'm holding something heavier, although it's more about the movement itself. The other day, I found myself doing the thing I had to do right at the start - holding my right arm up with my left one. Makes DIY jobs a bit tricky!
I didn't do much yesterday as I was out for quite a while, but lots of deadheading was done, tied in several plants, and swapped a couple of plants around. Today is to be pretty showery, so it might be a bit of a hokey cokey day...

 

My goodness @Allotment Boy what a harvest, what do you do with it all? My freezers are almost full already and there is still more everyday, I only have things in containers (veg trugs) in the garden and that is bringing in plenty.
Friday


Thursday


Wednesday

 

I like Thursday's arrangement, @Tinkerbelle61. Very artistic.

 

Thanks folks, @Tinkerbelle61 you're doing well there too.
We use and freeze as much as possible, some surplus goes to the family some to neighbours, at home and on plots. I should say that the Figs are not from my plot I swapped some Plums for them . We do that quite a bit at the plots not necessarily direct swaps, if you have a surplus, we share it around then if you have a gap in harvest some else will usually be offering something.
