If you are bored with gardening give this a miss!

This morning I went for my Covid booster jab, it hurt when he actually did the injection but has been fine since. I am trying to keep the enthusiasm going to get on with the neglected and overgrown areas in the front garden. Not easy tasks but just depressing to see them get worse as I go past them! I thought I would tackle the bed to the right of the main bed, it cannot be seen from the road so tends to get left!
I got distracted by the growth on the other side and the trees growing over the drive. I had strimmed the stuff on the gravel before I took the photo.
Then I decided to get the lopper and trim back the trees. Ever thought that an idea seemed like a good idea at the time? The bin was full and so is the makeshift compost heap so  bit of a problem here!
I carried on clearing and you can actually see there are boulders long that edge. Time to try the slat as a weed killer on the drive I think!
After lunch I got back to the original job, that was hard going with the gravel!
Sorry that I never seem able to get those pics t exactly the same angle! There had been yards of sticky weed on the first side, and it had also invaded the corner bed where the giant se kale are, and there was a lot of dead or dying forget me knots too, so no the scruffy area.
I did the clearing and quickly dug over the bare are then put in the last few plants I had.
Then I watered the front garden before tea and the back garden after tea! Lazy evening again I am afraid!

  1. I don’t get bored with gardening as long as it’s not me having to do it 😊 In fact I love to see a well kept garden, again, as long as someone else has done it!
    Yes that area does look a bit worse for wear. I haven’t reached the after pic, but I’m guessing it’ll look a bit better in it. I get distracted when I start jobs, so I understand how you ended up lopping trees. That is a lot of debris! Still a good idea though, and definitely needed doing. I think you need a wood chipper next to add to your tools!
    Got to the after pic of the bit you started first. That looks a hell of a lot better. So does the front corner bed. You really were on a mission today, and watering too! And that’s why I like looking at nice gardens and not doing them 😄
    I think you’ve earned a lazy evening……a lazy week off even!

  2. A fair bit achieved today, I’ll get the garden under control yet - maybe!
    Will see how if I feel like tackling any more areas tomorrow, maybe there will be heaven sent torrential rain which will be great and stop me in my tracks!
