The Allotment Wife

Tulip planting part two

Leave a comment

Not much to do at the allotment this week – we didn’t even do any hoeing as the frost this week has thankfully killed the weeds. We did, however, buy more tulips and plant them out so that’s the rest of that tulip bed now filled up. As you can see, I’ve gone for the orange look – it’s my favourite flower colour so I can’t wait to see the display next Spring.

There’s also a freesia still managing to survive the onset of winter, which is very heartening:

Whilst there, we cut down and composted the asparagus bed and plan to mulch it at some point ready for next year. We also added the gerberas to the compost as well.

I hope you have a lovely Remembrance Sunday. Lest we forget …
