Houses and Flowers

Another week of mixed weather wet windy and some sunshine. I am trying to prepare all my flower beds between the showers.

I have planted up one flower bed on the allotment but the ground was very wet.

I hope the plants will survive

I have cleared the rhubarb bed of couch and applied a liberal amount of muck.
