The Garden Again

As you haven't been regaled with tales of the garden for a month I thought it was time to bring you up to date. Although the mornings and evenings are distinctly chilly (4 degrees this morning) the temperature is rising to the low twenties during the day and the garden is full of late summer/autumn colour. Apparently we had a lot of rain whilst we were in Spain so, coupled with the warmth, it is no wonder that everything is lush.
 
We have plans to plant four trees in the back field so that they can establish before winter sets in. We put some stakes in the ground a few weeks ago to mark where we thought we wanted them planted. The idea being that we could reflect on their position before digging the holes. We have only made minor adjustments and John began digging yesterday. The nurseyman told us that the holes need to be a metre cubed - that's big. John has finished digging number one and three to go. I was worried about his heart but he is worried about his back!! He says it is a good work out but he will pace himself.
