Jobs for the weekend - 29/30 Mar

As well as catching up on a bunch of stuff from last weekend, i’ll be preparing tomato frames, mulching borders and planting summer flowering bulbs, building wildlife tunnels with the help of the neighbours and possibly feeding the lawns.

Also coming awake, the Japanese Pieris.

(If you're wondering how come I'm suddenly putting the names of the flowers in the posts, I haven't become a top class plant identifierer overnight, but it did occur to me that I could upload the pics to plantnet before I post them 🤦‍♀️ 😂 )

Close up of the Japanese pieris at the bottom of the garden.  Large bright green leaves in dappled sunlight, with the bright pink flowers starting to bud.


Yesterday was all about herbs. A visit to the Kitchen Garden Plant Centre to talk plants and growing for a future feature.

Morning all. See it's another fine day of international shittery! I'll be finding some small wins somewhere and pretendingthat everything's fine to get me thru.

Hope everyone is OK.

Look forward to reading about your #gardens . Apparently our first tulips are thru at home. Well - that's great news.

I've been going through the press releases, scribbled notes and photos from the recent Garden Press Event. This rather lovely new clematis was just one of the things I saw.

Head over to my blog to read about the day: https://bit.ly/4bgGNn0

Delighted to see my feature on growing hellebores in the current issue of Amateur Gardening.

I talked to the National Collection holder and Ashwoods Nurseries. Hellebores are one of my favourite flowers and, as always, talking to expert growers I learnt lots!

What with the weather and world news I'm in need of some floral cheer and this week's #CheeringUpMondays is very welcome.

These beauties have been brightening my garden for weeks regardless of wind, rain frost and snow. Dainty but tough!

#hedgehogs ‘near threatened’ on red list after 30% decline over past decade. The #mammals were once common across #Europe but #urbandevelopment has pushed them towards #extinction
While hedgehogs were once common across Europe, and were until now listed as of “least concern” on the red list, they are being pushed towards extinction by urban development, intensive #farming and #roads, which have fragmented their #habitat. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2024/oct/28/hedgehogs-near-threatened-red-list-decline-over-past-decade #environment #ecology #gardens #wildlife #nature


Dear #Fediverse: We are looking for a good solution to collaboratively create and maintain a #list of #open #source technologies for #gardens from #software to #hardware.

the solution should
* offer public visibility (via html)
* be easily editable (with or w/o account)
* have a version history
* be low tech
* hosted by other good people
* open source (of course)

extras for some style features, data fields and federation

tips welcome, boosts as well.
