smokingbootI have shaved the garden.
Some of the inmates of my imbolc seed trays are outside pushing up towards imaginary sunlight. Others are very dead, Jim.
Loads of my conservatory favourites should have stayed there. The petunias and gourds were doing really well until they met the outside world. At least the little people of the grass have stuffed their faces.
Today, I look at the garden and think; facing west, very exposed to wind and sun, rain and snow (we get it all here) good soil for drainage but lots of lumps and bumps, needs heathers and alpines and wildflowers. It might not be conventionally pretty but it feels right. And if I could add to that a small population of happy flightless birds, a miniature chalk maze, a green man in the corner and rose trees around the conservatory...
I think Larians is being very unfair. He's given me carte blanche with the garden provided that I don't overspend (unlikely considering the vast empty spaces in my bank account) or fill it with livestock.
Where, I ask you, is the point in that?
Had a dream about owning/being left a massive garden recently. Must find out what Jung has to say about peas on a trellis.
No, LJ, I am still not doing a proper update. Entries like this should make it obvious that work is driving me mad.
