For anyone who happens to have stumbled across this blog in the hope of finding insights to the meaning of life, serious discourse on matters of great import or any sharp wit, then you've certainly come to the wrong place. This is just a simple diary of one couple's gardening experiences, published so that family and friends can see the garden develop.

A busy weekend in the garden and not many pictures to show for it. Mostly tidying up and lifting ready for the winter. It was getting dark by the time we'd finished so there're only these few pictures for now. Maybe add a few more later.



The Aoneums (spelling?) are a bit tender so they're being moved indoors. The large one's getting a bit too big for the conservatory so we're putting it in the summerhouse and will wrap it up as it gets colder. The rest are in the house. As they propogate so readily and grow fast we're not too worried if we lose the big one, although it would be a shame, I suppose.



This Banana was bought as a small plant - maybe 45cm high - at the start of the growing season. It, too, is tender and has been lifted ready to go indoors. Again, being much too large for the house, it's going in the summerhouse where it'll be wrapped and molly-coddled in an atempt to get it through the winter. With the forecast being for a harsh winter we have our fingers crossed that it'll survive. Given that it was really quite expensive, we really don't want to lose this one!


A couple of Viburnum Davidii's. One male, one female, hopefully the right pairing to produce berries next year.
