After heavy rain, the little house garden soil was just right for planting up.
We took 4 trays of plants today and got them all in.
The sky was black but we didn`t get any hailstones...... we`ve just seen the size of them on the local news.
Gandalf remains dry under the cob eaves.
This is how the garden looks after today. We`ve surrounded each plant with chipped bark.
Steve has continued with the chipped bark on weed suppresant under the trees.
We did quite a bit of weeding in the raised bed as well. There were a lot of butterflies.
This is a small tortoiseshell on inula.
