Today was supposed to be really warm - over 20C - but it certainly didn't feel it. There was a cold wind blowing ! It was a day to do the shopping, and get the house cleaned for the weekend. I really don't like to spend too much time doing household chores on the weekend.
This afternoon, I had a general tidy up in the garden - weeding, deadheading etc. I sowed 4 courgette seeds (Endurance F1) in small pots (the kitchen windowsill is now FULL). Tomorrow, I plan to get stuck into the bed that is attached to the side of the house. It's not in the garden at all, but it's looking a mess, so it needs to have a few hours work done on it.
Just a few photos from this afternoon.
The lavender is growing well - really sprouting now. Looks and smells lovely.
Fuschias are looking healthy.
Snapdragons are snapping. (Yes...that is the portion of fence that I am supposed to have painted green. Tomorrow !)
And I'm very pleased with this little fuschia. I thought I'd lost it altogether ! It was in the garden over winter, and I'd forgotten all about it ! It looked dead. I repotted it and talked to it regularly. I didn't give up hope...and now look !! A little bit of TLC is always rewarded (whether in the garden or in life).
I'm off to do some bloghopping while I have the chance. Hope you all have a good evening !
