Check out this video! John Patrick shows you how to build a garden that takes water straight off the roof… and it’s a really great idea. Lots of other videos to watch there, too…
Due to the inordinate amount of time I’ve been spending online lately, I have to admit that I have been neglecting my garden.
I walk past it when I go out, and the little plants have seemed to be looking at me forlornly, wondering why I have been neglecting them.
Well, no more. I went for a nice long walk this afternoon, and when I got home I got stuck into the garden. I’ve now planted out a few of my cherry tomato seedlings into the big caged garden bed, as well as a whole lot of sugar snap pea seeds and my nasturtium, which had been starting to look a little sad in its pot.
It felt really good to be digging around in the dirt! It made me long for a place of my own, where I will be able to really get into it and make a proper garden in the ground. Pots are great, and my collection of potted plants has become somewhat mind-boggling… but it doesn’t compare to the ability to just dig in the ground and transform a piece of the earth.
So, my need to garden has been assuaged, for now…
P.S. Apologies if you had any trouble accessing the site yesterday - my host was doing maintenance.
