Cleaning, clearing, tidying...

Hi to all. have been on site lately. just nothing to report... But today i manage to do most of my autumn clearance (not in the shopping centre)... moved old pots and emptyed baskets (they looked so sad and pity). weeded the flower bed and move most of the plants- yes ones more i was not sure about the right place for the right plant..... so i moved them, and i bet you in the spring will move again. i wish i had a plan in my head...then planted my new babes  thanks to Violeta- lilies, miniature irises and day lilies from Liga. thanks again. Tulips in... Polytunnel nearly emptied and salads planted. enough its always tomorrow...

Where will I start??? back from beeing away for few days so trying to catch up in the garden and on the garden.ie... looks like everybody are so busy and enjoying the last days of sunshine. 

 Was great day for gardening today, I only wish the days were longer. I think i did lost the battle with all the weeds in the veg plot, so will wait for frost to kill them all. Got big load of manure so started to mulch my roses, heathers and fruit shrubs. But the best achievement for today was my new orchard planned and planted. With some apple trees, plums,black currant, raspberries and goji berries - hope i do not have to grow old to taste them.. have some alpine strawberries to share if anybody wants. Its lovely autumn and we have to enjoy it cause it not going to last for ever..
