Re: Early Summer Bits and Bobs.

I used to grow a type of Poppy called, “Hen and Chickens” for the dried seed heads.
And a Nigella called, Transformer, also for the dried seed heads.

Re: STRIMMER TO BRUSH CUTTER

Afternoon Compo, hope you are keeping well!

I’m not sure if all these different type heads are compatible with all machines…..I think it will be the threaded part that could be a problem but, they might all use the same size thread….or would the be just too simple!🙂

Re: Earthworms

I’m not sure, Myrkk, could it be a type of flatworm….might pay to google it and see if you can find a matching picture!

Re: Early Summer Bits and Bobs.

I planted some Statice earlier, Clive….Helichrysum next week, as they weren’t quite ready!
The shed looks really nice, Westi, glad you are pleased with it!
Sounds as if we have all had a busy day……

Re: Early Summer Bits and Bobs.

Been very busy for the last couple of hours, hoeing, amazing what area you can cover when conditions are just right….

Before that, I was potting on plants ready for the Church Fete….🙂

Re: A sunny glade

A lovely little snippet, Burnie!

Where one of the plot holders was putting dead mice on his allotment for the Red Kite, it now comes within 20 Feet of where I am working…..a very special site indeed!
