My husband has done some great work in the garden but he's not the best at tidying up when he's finished a job.
I've been busy putting things away.
Cleaning things up ready to move to the tip.
Finding a home for the wheelbarrow.
Picking up stray gloves.
Tidying up the wood pile.
And gaining access down the side of the house.
Drying out the off cuts of wood.
And burning them in the fire pit.
The back garden is almost finished.
Just the wagon wheel to be mounted on bricks for the herb garden and the fir tree to be dug up and the new path to be laid.
The washing pole to be moved.
The succulents have been moved under cover and the winter boots are ready to be worn.
The bougainvillea has been repotted with a mixture of sand and compost, ready to be brought inside for the winter.
The more delicate plants and herbs have been put undercover.
The garden cushions have been stored for winter.
The Bay tree is waiting to be fleeced.
The last of the tomatoes have been picked to ripen on the window sill.
And the undercover area has been made ready for winter evenings and early mornings, for drinking tea, reading and still being able to enjoy the outdoors, whilst keeping warm and dry.
We planted some Angel Wing tulips with my granddaughter gifted to us by a friend after our daughter died.

Your garden is looking lovely, it is a never ending job though isn't it. I've given up on mine for now, but I do have plans for next summer. I just need the funds as I can't do the work myself. perhaps I could invite Charlie Dimmock over :)
