My day

After several hours during the week clearing and cleaning up a messy garden my day started like this

Wonderful B3

We are still battling on here - Lorcan seems to be a sleep all day and party all night type of boy so DYD is finding it tough,

I was glad today when the visiting health nurse told her that she mustn't expect to do it all on her own, and to accept help when it is offered...

So now I am allowed to do some babysitting while she catches a few hours sleep 

Of course the little cherub is being just perfect for his Grammy, and is snoozing away.

It's funny how the grandmothers always think they do it better 😄  Nice that you are helping though B3.

I was given two funny stick plants yesterday.  I didn't have a clue what they were.  No leaves, just a few buds.

Apparently they are poinsettias?  Can they survive well in a pot?

[lyndal1838]

Pointsettias do really well in pots j*oono...it keeps them in check.

If you do put them in the garden make sure they can be contained in some way as they can go mad in the right conditions.

Its great that she has you on hand to help B3, it's early days yet 🙂

Loving this Spring weather, veggie planting has begun, so far we have planted strawberries, raspberries, potatoes, beetroot, tomatoes ( still need to plant more ), lettuce, spring onions and capsicum.   Still need to get some zucchini, cucumbers and pumpkin planted but plenty of time to get this done. Light drizzle is falling here this morning, making all my gardens healthy and happy 🙂

Morning all xxxxx

Just here for a couple of seconds to send you greetings and admit that we have planted baby spinach, cos lettuce, baby carrots, spring onions, bok choy, a Camillia bush (the flowers are falling off for some reason already ...  ... ), violas and some potatoes. 

Another garden has been prepared for mini cabbages and something else ... 

Back later ...

Thanks Lyndal.  I don't want any more big stuff in the garden.  She said that they are a good windbreak if allowed to grow tall but... 

[bushies.girl]

Waves to Tas 🙂

I am growing smaller cabbage atm Tas, they taste delish, less to get through, at one time, so wastage is limited. Also if you buy a bunch of spring onions/shallots, try re planting the base of them, they will grow again, then just cut them off when you need them and lt them keep re growing.
