Like the host of this meme I find myself resenting time away from the garden at the moment. Today I would normally go to an HPS meeting but it was either sit in a village hall discussing plants or actually be outside in the garden getting on with sorting out my garden – I chose…

Six on Saturday – 23rd March 2019
A lovely sunny day in the garden, finally, with no particular plans just being. I am enjoying this meme as it makes me really look at what is looking best in the garden. I have a mooch around the garden taking photos of anything interesting. However, it took a few walks around the garden before…
Six on Saturday – 16 March 2019
Yes, I know it’s Sunday but as ever I have failed to get my act together to do a post on Saturday – it is what it is. In any case Saturday was definitely not a gardening day with extreme winds and rainy showers but this was all right as I went to my monthly…
A bit of wall construction
Whilst I haven’t had much time in the garden over the past few weeks due to the weather and a sick cat that time has been quite productive. There is of course a lot of tidying up that needs to be done, weeding etc but I needed to have something which would give me more…
Six on Saturday – 9th March
March seems to have roared in like a lion, which hopefully will mean it will end like a lamb but we will wait to see if that old adage is true. Today we had another day full of blustery winds and squally showers, intermingled with sunshine, which at first seemed a good day for gardening…

I won’t bore you with the details suffice to say it’s not due to am oversight on bill payment. The situation should be…
Spring at last
Hoorah a sunny Sunday at long last with temperature creeping into double figures. But what to do and where to start? Having been unable to garden for several weekends due to the cold and wet the jobs are mounting up. The situation isn’t helped by the fact that I have started some major renovation…
Its all about the hellebores – GBBD March ’18
This month we have moved on from snowdrops to the hellebores, although the snowdrops are still just there in the background as if frozen in time due to the cold snap. I love hellebores, they are one of my many weakness. I love their nodding demure heads which only reveal their real beauty when you…
End of Winter?
As predicted in my last post we have had snow. Here in Malvern we have got off fairly lightly compared to some parts of the country and indeed this area. Several friends who live in more rural settings have experienced drifts of snow over 6ft tall. This demosntrates what has been so challenging about this…
