Planting and things
Creating a new front flower bed for fragrance: roses, Daphne, and gardenias. After watching the Gardener’s World episode aired on Friday 8th October about trees planted a Sorbus splendens after removing a clump of Hellebore dividing it and replanting it. Weeding and tidying a rockery
Some challenging fencing
Almost 2 hours clearing brambles just to be able to get to the fence! Then having to align it with the existing fence which had not been placed according to the boundary lines.
Rose rescue
Had to dig out this old rose for a client.. Want to see if it revives.. Watch this space

Big hedges!
Using a long reach hedge trimmer plus extension – – TBH not great for the shoulders and my squash game ! Trigger point therapy needed! Link to book, very useful and interesting! https://g.co/kgs/oGkcky
