I will sleep well tonight



I have just lifted and spread 10 bags of soil over the new bed area, its all ready for planting now. Base layer of mulch, and compost to enrich the soil and  dolomite to sweeten it.
A far cry from bricks, builders sand, compacted heavy loam and weeds   
 
   Having done all the heavy work and chopping up of green manure in one of the newer areas I rewarded myself with some plantings
Passionfruit, manure and compost beneath it
a bucket of lemongrass

bags of taters
to do :   trellis for the passionfruit and the beans
             grapevine supports
             netting
             mulch
             basil and marigold seeds to be planted
             feed everything
             work out where i can fit the sunflowers, they may have to go in buckets again
