REARRANGE


I have been moving stuff around and made this little rockery its near where I sit I have changed the lights so many times since this Photo every time I look at it I rearrange 


Here it is again this time I have added more rocks and hehe changed the ornaments around again. 



I caught this Wood Pigeon nicking the Elderberry's off my tree they keep dropping them and braking off the leafs, when the berries hit the ground its like paint splattering. 


Two of them having a feed

The grass is coming along nicely 
this part of the grass was bare a good few weeks ago, my transplanted grass believe it or not worked its rooted and is growing.



I have taken these out of there pots and put in a bigger container, I used my recycling bin, don't tell Hackney Council (smile)



To make it look a bit better I used the Pot Legs that are Frogs and to compliment the little frogs I put my Mummer Frog there too!

This one has grown I potted it and moved it to the sunny side of the garden.

The Iris plants have established themselves and are sprouting new stems.


Now this photo I was trying to get behind the plants but it did not work hehe nice pic of my legs haha



I trimmed the neighbours Rose bush yesterday it was hanging over the fence and dropping all its petals on my side I got a bit fed up with picking them up, so trimmed it back a bit.

CLOSE UP UPDATE AUGUST

This is a experiment, I got this Chrysanthemum Plant it was meant for indoors.  I bought it cheap thinking it was for the garden.  So I have split it into five plants and put it into my flower bed where I have just improved the soil.  I just want to see how long they last and just see if they grow, Who knows?

I am very pleased with this Hydrangea Plant its growing and budding more flowers.


Still watching my Ivy its like watching a kettle boil hehe.


I have been researching these Hosta plants and was real pleased to find out that I can split them like the Iris's.  I am going to leave this for this year and next year when its a bit more established I will lift it up and make a few more plants from it.


This is my transported Vine crossing my fingers it would take, well its growing up the wall so lets see how it is next spring.

This is like a Iris it grows with tall yellow flowers I have split this into three plants you will just have to see what its like in the spring.

My Irises are branching out again after splicing some of them and moving to a few places in the garden.  Looking forward to these flowering in the spring.

Just took these photos to give myself a record of the growth as these will last all through the Winter, crossing my fingers.






This is the transported Plant that Benji liked to pull up, its got two babies, this plant took a good few weeks to establish it self, so I am please its got babies.


Here are the Babies

This seems to be spreading slowly, I know now why these were cheap to buy because I missed the Flowers, shame because they only last one season.  You never know they might just flower?


More Sweet Williams


I am waiting for this to flower its gets white flowers. I will keep you updated with this.


I am hopping this plant lasts until next year.

These are so slow to grow.

My Bay not sure if I am going to leave it natural or shape it. We will see?

Hoping this gets established love to see this grow tall.


Ivy on my flower bed growing and I am trying to trail the leafs up the fence.


When I remember the name of this I tell you the story

Sweet Pea is spreading and I have some Seed Pods growing I have researched how to do these seeds so I will wait to late Autumn and that will be a new challenge for me.





This was an experiment too, don't laugh this corner was quite bare and I transferred some grass from elsewhere and it took.



Waiting for this corner to grow just might have to put some seeds in next year this little corner was filled with weeds that I killed.


More transported grass?
