It is that glorious time of the year when the self-sown seeds develop into little plants, and decisions have to be made: weed out or keep for later foraging? Yummy fun.
going to the portaloo at day break has its previously unseen pleasures
sea holly and transplanted lavenders outside Steve's Studios 1 & 2
bit of clearing out for the next plan...
which involves converting this dark corner to natives
fungi on a chopped pittosperum
looking back to the dark corner from the netted Cox's Pippin
finally got something to grow in the window box of Studio 3
where potager and Tassie native garden meet
main self-seeding and future foraging area
the private corner where I take bucket baths in the absence of a bathroom
simple pleasures - rhubarb in Georgia's kitchen
our Chinese New Year feast

A truly inspirational garden, worthy of a Monty Don visit. Love the sea holly and the hidden spaces. The to-be native garden area looks promising and of course will no doubt be full of bee, bird and butterfly attracting plants. Of course any property that includes not only Studios 1 and 2 but a Studio 3 is worthy of a story in Country Style magazine. May we see what artistic endeavours comes out of these studios? Are they all Steve's domain or do you (pardon the pun) potter? FF
ReplyDeleteMeant to say - love your title and I'm sure Donovan would approve. However... I can't stop singing it !!!
ReplyDeleteWell done re title - wasn't sure anyone would get it. It was aimed at Bronwyn, a great Donovan fan, but I'm not sure that she sees the blog these days.
ReplyDeleteThe garden is designed to lure Monty in, but so far to no avail. The dark corner is no more - Georgia fixed it with her chainsaw.
The studios are all Steve's domain, too messy and dirty even for me. I have the garden shed. We share the other shed, though it is mainly domestic. Currently filled with toilet bowl, shower bay, vanity, etc, and not accessible - especially as the plumber took the key...
