Having spent a week on the ski slopes, the garden has mostly been looking after itself. Despite the continuing bursts of cold weather, the grass is growing; a trim will be called for soon.
The magnolia is leading the way for the tree blossoms, though it feels later than last year. A few daffs are out, but again I’d have expected more.
Still, the new path/bed works are nearly complete – two bits of old york stone edging onto the lawn left. Then it’s the raised beds – the ground is being prepped – and some lawn works.
It’ll soon be full of colour I expect. See what you think…
And then there’s always Dog helping…

I really thought Dog would have trimmed the lawn for you before your return!

You can’t train old dogs to grow opposable thumbs anymore. Don’t know what the world is coming to

You could hook the mower up to Alexa (other systems are available) and Dog could use voice commands!

Looking great. Gardens, left to their own devices, manage to still look amazing. Dog of course kept an eye on it for you.

The garden is showing all the signs of a spectacular spring. Just lovely all year round. Dog doesn’t seem impressed!

Your garden looks about like ours. Generally it’s a little further along but lack of sun has definitely slowed things up a bit. Who’s the guy with the head phones?

This is so beautiful and serene that it takes my breath away, Geoff.
Although, on a different note, it would probably be a good idea to burry the body that’s under that blanket…
😉 Hugs.

I’m looking forward to full Monty. Good place for the secateurs as long as you had your glasses on. Always amazes me why they didn’t produce them in very bright colours, we spent a fortune over the years. Usually, found them when I was on the turn around mower, ouch.
