This is the busiest season in and about the garden.

Seedlings must be nurtured in the house,

 the semi-finished Bothy is being organised… with a nod to its previous tenants.

Weeds are rampant  and everything needs attention at once!

Still, the garden is beautiful and feeds my soul.

The potager,is putting forth such succulent delights as ‘Gourmet  Lettuce  Mix’ ,’ Italian Kale’ &  ‘Red Mesclun Mix’.

                                                                                          Finally the arbor has found its home. Poor thing , one has moved her about so often…

I like the way it ties into the Bothy. Evergreens will be planted on both sides of the arbor, forming a hedge. This will serve as the entrance to the Potager and the end of the ‘Pleasure Garden” (so Edwardian don’t you think?)
