May Bank Holiday Project

We marked this May bank holiday by building an insect hotel. We purchased the reclaimed ridge tile from a local roofer's merchant, the logs were cut from the fig tree we felled to allow more light into the garden. The insect hotel is built on the slab laid over our dear, departed cat Dudley.

It will be interesting to see who moves in.

We planted up the next batch of Kelvedon Wonder.It is essential to make sure the paper pots are completely earthed over otherwise they will wick moisture from the roots of the seedlings.

We earthed up the Red Dukes.

The Medlar is in bloom.
