Compo 10,328 Posted June 27, 2013 Report Share Posted June 27, 2013 Here is a selection of pictures from the garden, taken today, 27/6/13. Despite a very long winter and poor spring, things are finally beginning to grow: https://picasaweb.google.com/paul.simonite/SomeOfTheGardenJune272013?authuser=0&authkey=Gv1sRgCNvuu6uCtaHfrgE&feat=directlink Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DAVIDW 1,693 Posted June 27, 2013 Report Share Posted June 27, 2013 Fabulous photos . Looking after that lot must be a full time job . I just trimmed a privet hedge today , (admittedly its about 16 foot high) and I'm whacked ! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Compo 10,328 Posted June 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2013 Too right it's a full time job David! It takes me two days to trim the hedges with a petrol trimmer. It knackers me! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

poohbear 1,360 Posted June 27, 2013 Report Share Posted June 27, 2013 Shurrup moanin' Compo, in another life you could be on floor 10 of Nelson Mandella House :tongue: My gardens still mostly green...all the flowers seem to be about a month behind except for the Clematis Montana which has flowered and gone now. Taters down the garden are coming on well with the recent rain though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Compo 10,328 Posted June 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2013 My montana was not much to look at this year. i did a very heavy pruning on it last season to get it back under control. I note your Gunnera manicata is performing well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
poohbear 1,360 Posted June 27, 2013 Report Share Posted June 27, 2013 Another month with a good dose of chicken crap it should be quite interesting. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Compo 10,328 Posted June 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2013 I no longer keep hens but I have access to farmyard muck and horse pooh. That seems to work ok. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
