October has been delightful. And today, being the last day, was no exception. We were still in t.shirts. Even the wellies were uncomfy but we needed them due to wet grass.
My main job was to clear the first flowerbed. Last time I cut back all the growth .... Michaelmus daisies have taken possession of the whole bed.
Alongside, Steve lifted the membrane on the old path and seeded it with grass. This completed the whole seeding of the path.
Our teabreak was outside still, in baking sunshine. I took the chance to take pictures of the late late flowers.
Here are some of them
Anne`s salvias are beautiful. I forgot to take slips for cuttings. They root easily in jars of water on the bathroom windowsill.
What a wonderful sight.
Blue sky and manure.
And quite a few to go!!
Lovely to see so much colour still at this time of year it has been quite mild still although a fair bit of rain. I got my last cut of the grass this week ready for the winter months keep up the good work well done Jen and Steve.
ReplyDeleteIt was a lovely October and look at all those flowers still! The Boogie Wookiee is a beaut. And manure! We’re struggling to get any at the moment, our usual supplier was affected by the fires that many of our farms suffered from during the heatwave ☹️
ReplyDeleteEverything is bashed and battered now. So glad I took all these photos.
DeleteIt's all about timing 🙂
