Spring clear up in the greenhouse

[zigs]

Typical Bank Holiday weather over here, orrible, cold and wet for most of the day, but the sun came out last thing so sorted out the greenhouse.

Little bit of stuff had to come out...

Main fruit garden is waking up, bushes pruned by someone who has no idea how to prune fruit bushes Don't worry, she won't find this forum

Anyone fancy a Parsnip?

You've been busy! What have you got in your fruit garden?

Looking good zigs! Ever roasted parsnips? Yum!

Got Blackcurrants, Gooseberries, Strawberries and an Apple @Becky, just moved the Grapevine to the main plot.

It survived being neglected in a bucket for a couple of years, don't even think I watered it last year while I was mad. Gets a bit boggy here so I've planted it on a bit of a mound for drainage.

I do like roast parsnips @Beth_B Just haven't got an oven anymore

Cor that's a lovely mix! I hope your grapevine does well - who knows, before long you may have your own vineyard

This will keep you on your toes for a while, and I also hope your grapevine does well in its new home!

What a beautiful evening! Nice to see how everything is coming along. I'm pleased to see your Rum & Coke plant is doing well

That's great. My aunt had a greenhouse/garden too, and it was really messy during the rainy seasons here. It's just wind, storm, and more rain for a few straight months, and nobody would really want to go outside the pouring rain to just clean up the flown away leaves and bumped potted plants, so it stays like that until the sun shines, which doesn't usually happen until at the end of September or so. It's not great, but when the plants are in full bloom, it is all worth it.

Yep, it's good to have one for when it's not so nice outside

Grapevine is bursting into leaf

Thanks Zigs. It felt like a personal tour of your garden. Love the birds tweeting and could almost feel the Spring warmth.
