Pace is stepping up a little now.
Spent most of the morning working with Jim Robertson at Highfield. Pruned 6 hydrangeas which had been planted 3 years ago but haven’t been touched since. Jim did 6 as well and edged along the beds. He’s a terrific work mate.
Wandered inside to see the quilt exhibit: magnificent. Ron would like to make a quilt with some of his tee shirts.
At the transfer station, picked up a nice discarded tub with handles, perfect for the potato garden. Disinfected it and planted six potato pieces, which have been hardening for a day in the kitchen window sill.
It appears that the transfer station is on the migratory path for some very friendly flamingos!
Also planted the tomato and petunia seeds in the cold frame.
On the way back from Highfield, I “discovered” Service Road in Falmouth, which has some beautiful properties.
Had a good PT session with Andy Enea. He’s set me up for 3 sessions a week between now and the trip, to try to get my legs conditioned.
Fluffles got his first application of Advantage for the year.
