Next project

I've ventured out this week for the first time in ages and it feels good to be back in the mud. I've already moved a couple of things around as we've had a lot of rain lately and not much frost. The ground is all soft, just a bit sticky for digging.

This is the next area to be tackled. I was going to get some whips (not sure what though) to put here but, on reflection, I might have enough things in pots to fill the space. The area is packed full of acquilegia that have been happily self-seeding here long before I arrived on the scene. There's a good mix of colours so I will probably dig them all out to get at the brambles and weeds then put them all back in again. The area looks good every spring but then fails after that when the weeds take over. I need colour for July onwards so I'm planning to grow some perennials from seed so that I can have lots of the same thing. I'm big on drifts of colour at the moment.
