Garden centre and garden

I caught the bus to Sigglesthorne to go to the garden centre this morning. A couple of months ago I got a pair f garden shoes, like Crocs, but no holes and comfortably wide enough for me, so I have been meaning to go again and get another pair while they still have them. I ended up getting bulbs, just four, agapanthus plants. Big and showy and I thought they would make a good display. Also bought a house for the fairy garden and a crossword a day puzzle block tha was 75% off in the sale! I did get the shoes as well!

Took this photo while I was waiting for the bus home.

I checked what position agapanthus like and it is full sun and plenty of it. That made me decide to tidy up the bed where I have had the gladioli for the last three years. They didn’t do so well last year so I had thought I needed to lift them. They don’t need to be planted until March but I though I would go out and start getting it ready.

The Angels Wings, the plant with the pale leaves, had become unruly so I dug it up but thought I would try and root the stems, I have managed to root some before. Some digging and hoeing and I got the grass trimmer out as well, amazingly it had a bit of battery power left! A good start and another cart of weeded etc in the garden bin!

I had some rooting crystals so have put the cuttings in one of the planters I bought a while ago.

A nice sky again this evening so will finish with them. The middle one was take from inside the greenhouse was was through glass and netting!
