No much weeding to do here, I've moved everything that I can into pots. So much easier to manage. And things, so far seem to be thriving this year.
I've got plants, bulbs and some veg in my little greenhouse.

What are you growing San ?

Well besides weeding Mandy, I'm planting up my window boxes at the moment but need to get a few more plants. My small privet hedge needs in parts to be tied in so it will bush out a bit more. Then I'm going to rearrange some plants in a small section of the front garden cos I need space to add a Salix Flamingo tree.

That's all for this week :wink:

Managing a 6 acre Olive Grove, it's like the 4th bridge with weeds.

Well, what am I doing in the garden............... either my knitting or crocheting and a cuppa. :lol: My cross stitch isn't too good to do outside, so have to leave that when I'm in the sun room.

My grass lawn is finally beginning to grow probably because i decreased the height of my conifer trees around my house. Being a Naturist i try to protect my privacy although lately i have started to wear a cap and a thong. And of course plenty of sun cream !

We have been busy in the garden.
Nothing like kdw though! :shock: You need farm labourers in!
Tomatoes going extremely well.
Peppers coming along.
Chilli peppers are doing great.
Passion fruit already an abundance of fruit! Plenty of seedlings to give our friends.
Trying to grow Dragon fruit fingers crossed they take. :wink:
Our pool has decided to crack! :shock: :roll: so that is trying to be sorted, just waiting... :roll:
