It's a beautiful sunny weekend, although the mornings are definitely getting cooler. So, this weekend it's a case of:
- aerating the lawn (one of last weeks jobs not yet done)
- carry on weeding
- chopping down the dead heads on some of the Achillea, to try & stop it seeding like it did last year
- thin out the Cerinthe seedlings - another plant that spreads itself around a bit. Beautiful in early summer.
The insects are getting fewer in the garden, but it's been a great year for butterlies, lke this Peacock on the Buddleia 'Harlequin'.
Great photo of the flutterby ! Did you take it yourself ?
ReplyDeleteThank you Snohare - my husband took it. It's been a fantastic year for flutterbys in our garden and there's still plenty around!
