Retailing wall, turf removal and dig a bed over. Oh, and a second arch coming into the garden with a small fence to keep OH new furface in the garden lol
Wintersong - I keep a garden diary (have always kept it a deep, dark secret, due to the unmerciless abuse I get from my family for it - but there you go - secret's out!). We are also at least a month behind this year.
GW said that spring would come with a rush - but have just seen the week ahead forecast, and still doesn't look promising. At this rate my magnolias will be flowering in June !!

I don't keep a diary as such but am quite organised with my garden photos on the computer and like to see how things are different from 12 months ago. The plants generally seem a few weeks behind but why are the brambles doing so well?
I know what you mean, chicky! My 'Lizzie' early plum has had flower buds on for nearly 2 months and I don't think she can hold it in much longer, poor thing!
A trowel in the hand is worth a thousand lost under a bush.
Its been done a little at a time I have to admit. My ME wont allow me to go hammer and tongs anymore but I get there
Caz...brambles are creeping in to my garden too Damn things come from the woodland and spend all my time cutting and pulling them back. I need a weedkiller that will get rid of them. Any ideas?
Sam - they are normally out in April (8th last year - according to the diary - as you can see, it gives the impression that I am a teeny bit obsessive!). This year, like Penine Petal, there is no sign of flowers yet. Don't know quite how long the flowers can survive in a dormant state.
But you can be sure that when they do finally come out, the first thing I will do is reach for the dreaded diary to note down the date

Wow. Sam, you must be working very hard out there, don't be overdoing it.
Dove, that sounds like a useful arrangement.

Caz, brambles always do well. So do stinging nettles
