Autumn leaves

11/11/2021

0 Comments

 
Our last session was on a damp drizzly sort of day. The leaves are continuing to fall. We raked up quite a lot, but they were falling as we worked despite the air being almost still. The huge plane tree in Festival Walk looks as if it has still got half its leaves so there are plenty more to come. We continued clearing the ivy and snowberry from the raised bed at the back of the garden. We also planted a few more bulbs in the beds by the kitchen and the Pound Street wall. A squirrel had dug a hole into the area we planted last time but fortunately it had not gone deep enough to find a tasty treat. Hopefully they will find enough food elsewhere and our bulbs will make a nice show in the spring.
​
It feels like it is going slowly but it’s that time of the year.
