Plantaholic gardener who enjoys a gym workout. I like justice, fairness, kindness, courtesy & equality. I post photos of my garden pretty much daily plus the odd workout photo. Looking to connect with other gardeners and gym enthusiasts.

Evening everyone. This is my front garden Michaelmas daisy. I love the colour but it’s a bit taller than expected so I’ll need to move it to a more suitable place after it’s flowered. #gardening #gardeninglife

Good morning Jeremy. Have a great day.

Love them. They remind me of my solo childhood countryside wanderings on the farm where I lived in the 1960s. It was idyllic.

The results of this afternoon’s labours: Some crocus and Iris Reticulatas planted and now residing on my display tables. #gardening #gardeninglife #corms

Hi everyone. I’m kicking off this afternoon’s gardening by bringing out some of my small pots ready to plant up my small bulbs/corms.I only brush the pots to remove debris. I never wash them as I like the patina that makes them look more aged. It’s just personal taste. #gardening #gardeninglife

Good morning everyone. It’s been a busy one already as I needed an early emergency appointment at the dentist due to a filling fall out. They were great though & all is now well. Now enjoying a coffee before heading out later. Pic shows a self seeded cyclamen. #gardening #gardeninglife

Thanks. I have quite a little collection.

Hostas moved into the Growhouse and the display table now tidied ready for the small bulb pots when I get them planted up. #gardening #gardeninglife

First job of the afternoon was to put these pots of hostas ‘to bed’ for the winter. #gardening #gardeninglife #autumnjobs

Thanks Yvonne. I hope you’re enjoying a pleasant day too. I’m currently enjoying a coffee out in the garden.

Good morning everyone. It’s a beautifully sunny one here I’m pleased to report. Have a great day all. My pic shows some nice autumnal colour but also year end decline. The hostas are saying goodbye for now. #gardening #gardeninglife #acer #bonsai #hostas #ferns

Carried out a bulb stock take. It may take quite a while for these to be planted but, hopefully, Spring will be a colourful affair. #gardening #gardeninglife #bulbs

Afternoon Yvonne. Kind of you to say so. It’s pouring down here and has been for the majority of the day so far.

Good morning everyone. It’s a very wet start to the day here. These viola have settled in well and are giving me much joy near the back door. Here’s wishing you a day that brings you some joy. #gardening #gardeninglife #violas
