Good Evening FORKERS

Posted: 14/06/2013 at 22:35

Evening all.  Bit knackered today.  Completed the bug box and painted it, will need to fill it with twigs when in position.  Sorted out frame for raised bed.  Watched GW and liked the geums the tangy orange ones are very pretty.  Also liked the aliums.  Interesting about the aphids - sadly I have that problem on an apple tree.  Bit windy today but sunny and hot later.  Of course that makes it get cold quickly once the sun goes. 

Listened to Gardners question time earlier and Carol from Beechgrove Gardens was on the panel, talking about hidden gardens Edinburgh way.

Evening all been trying to build a bug box - got so far but battery on drill run out needed to be plugged in to finish it to charge up.

Also went up station bit more weeding and chopping of nettles and a bit of ivy - garden waste to go in the brown bin, weather not that great was a bit windy and a little wet there were lots of bees buzzing around the flowers so good for the wildlife

Me still got lots of plants to plant yet from my plastic greenhouse to go into the garden and I am sure the slugs will find them

Something for the weekend.......enjoying gardens and flowers.
