Finding my prince

A friend of mine had given me some plants. It’s always so nice, I think, when you can share plants from your garden. They feel special.

I was keen to get them in the ground, as it’s ideal growing conditions – warm days with lots of humidity, and the soil is damp and full of worms doing their stuff. We chose the positions for them, and soon they were happy in their new home. Can’t wait to see them develop.

Even though it’s way too chilly to be using the pool, Brian still needs to keep it clean and check the chemical levels. When he was up there earlier he rescued a rather ugly little frog, who’d managed to find a way in. It’s not really a good environment for frogs, so Brian fished him out. Hopefully he’ll hop off and find somewhere a little more comfortable to live.

We do still have quite a bit of work to do in the garden before winter, but the bright autumn days make being outside delightful.
