All action in the garden

The warmer weather has certainly perked the plants up in the garden and the borders are starting to fill out. We are however, still having overnight frosts, my Castor Oil plant got caught a few days back, so this will need cutting off, but on the whole things are looking good.


The seeds I planted the other weekend have germinated and some will be ready for potting on


The apple blossom is not quite out yet so hoping it can hang on until the frosts are finished, the cherry seems not to be bothered and is putting on a show



New growth everywhere


Last year I thought my Wisteria was mainly dead as I only had one flower head and a few leaves, but no this year it is going to be a mass of blooms, must have been having a rest.  I will make sure to take some photos once we are in full bloom


Hubby is busy with the rotavator finishing the veg plot and I have finished clearing the borders of leaves and general garden rubbish.  All the edges need recutting but thats a job for another day, I have knitting to get on with

Quiet times

Things seem to be a bit quiet around Granny's World at present.  

Not a lot to say or show.

Knitting goes on a pace, but as its a surprise there is nothing to show you for now.  Nothing done on the ten stitch for Laurie or frilled dress for a while, they languish in their respective bags.  I have a bag of yarn and patterns set aside for cardigans to start for little Miss Lucy, a request from her Mummy.

So what is going on in Granny's World this weekend?

Tomorrow kicks off with a birthday for Rebecca.

Followed closely by the wedding of Miss Chloe Harvey to Mr Liam Davison.  -
updated to include link with photos
I hope you have a wonderful day and an equally wonderful life together. 
I will be armed with my camera so pictures to follow.



Saturday I predict to be a quiet day!




Sunday is the birthday of our Rachel
We plan lunch out but to where I do not know as yet.

So there you have it, a weekend all mapped out.  I hope whatever you are doing you have a great time

PS: not sure why there are 2 x pics on Rachel's birthday as I can't see it to remove it!!
