Work in progress

Hi, installed an awning today.

 

Hi Anthony, the arbour is starting to fill out another few weeks and it should be in bloom a few plants are just starting to flower .

 

Hi, i will be moving my greenhouse soon, this will be its new home ive started clearing a space for it and put a small fence up, the tree stump is the main problem it has to go, i will be making a shed where the greenhouse is now.

 

Its starting to take shape Anthony, i wanted the bottom open a little so I can see up the garden from my living room,

Very pleased with it another week it should look different again things have just started to flower .

 

Hi Martin,

It's looking stunning and full of promise of what's to come.

Are there a lot of trailers/climbers in there to block out all the trellis supports ?

 

Thank you Anthony, just a few sweet peas and some climbing nasturtium wont cover it totally i don't think.

 

Where's the Fuchsias then ?

 

It's looking good Martin, a couple more weeks and it'll be full of flowers.

 

5 days and its looking better already S , I hope it keeps going for a week/two i dead head everyday in hope ,

Very pleased with how this has all turned out, once the sunflowers open (red ones here) and the gladioli it should look different again

What a difference a year makes! Mind you, you've only been a member 16 months and I still recall when you first posted about your garden.
You have put so much work into your garden and the rewards are obvious for all to see. Bravo!

 

When it's all in full bloom Martin, it will look amazing!

Hi all hope everyone is well ,

The last two days I've been getting the greenhouse in order, since I installed it in 2015 its been acting as a shed,

Spent all day yesterday clearing it out and taking rubbish to the tip, today ive been installing a new floor, its still work in progress but looking much better,

The greenhouse is a 8x6, I'm wanting to put a heater in for next year, what I would like is a electric one that's waterproof any advice on what to buy please, thanks in advance.

A few pictures of how its looking at the moment.

 

Wonderful to see you posting once again!
No advice on electric heaters, but I must say those little lights in the floor look fab!

Are those the bamboos you bought earlier in this year? They look perfectly at home in their pots flanking the doorway.

 

Hi M thanks I'm only a part timer hope all is well

Yes that's the Bamboo I bought, I'm a little concerned about some of them most of its leaves have fallen of, reading up there not in the best spot cold westerly winds have hit them through the end of the winter, I will see how they go in the next month or so, if they don't pick up I will replace them with pampas grass,

Most of the greenhouse is now in the shade, east side is painted out white the front is south facing the bamboo shades the front, even though I haven't had any plants in it as such ive noticed it get too hot so I had to do something to keep it cool in warm weather, last year with the widow and door open it was over 100 at times ,

Greenhouse base now finished, I might get a few plants in it
