Time to tackle the weeds .....
The sun was shining today again and so it seemd appropriate to tackle the weeds growing in my garden.
blue sky over the roof tops
muddy boots
(vintage!) garden fork
Closer inspection led to the discovery of some pretty things growing here ...
and some other garden features ...
Blackcurrant cuttings (growing indoors)
Then inside for hours of fun with a cardboard box!!!
Before slippers off and to bed ...
Take care

Lovely photos - those pansies are just beautiful. Your post title made me laugh! Always good to see who's winning against the pesky weeds! Intrigued by your blackcurrant cuttings - did you just cut them and stick them in some potting compost or did you do something more complicated?
ReplyDeleteThey were so easy - you just cut back and put them in potting compost xx

Hello Pen - thank you for visiting! It is so much fun, I can't believe I haven't started before now.
DeleteLovely flowers, especially the pink ones in the fifth photo. I always dread weeding but feel so much better after I've done it..a bit like cleaning the oven!
ReplyDeleteAnd a bit like ironing too!! X

Hello Susan. The boots were a necessity today - I couldn't believe how muddy it was in the garden!
DeleteDear Lorraine,
ReplyDeleteAren't those pansies stunning? Such warm colours which are not widely seen at this time of year, I think. I love your boots too!
Thank you for your sweet, kind comment on my blog about my rabbits. Mademoiselle Primavera and her friends, old and new, will soon be on sale. Wish my luck ;-)
A bientôt!

My wellies are over a year old and they haven't motivated me much in the garden!!! Great for walking on the beach though! :) xx
DeleteHi
ReplyDeleteLove the photographs, keep up the great gardening!
Thank you - I'm afriad gardening doesn't come naturally though!!
DeleteOoh, I have a vintage garden fork too - just like your one. It belonged to my Dad and I treasure it. It has a special place, in the ground, in my vegetable plot! Elaine
ReplyDeleteMy fork belongs to my dad too! How lovely that you have your dad's fork. Some things are just priceless aren't they? I xx
