Raised Nano-Beds

The plants that arrived earlier in the week have now been planted: we did them in half-buried pots (eponymously), so that they have better drainage, but can still extend their roots. we'll try to actually raise the beds next season, so they can be 'permanently' planted.

The Cambridge Favourite strawberries weren't looking all too happy, so we also potted them. Hopefully that will help...

We're now off to Cambridge (city, rather than some strawberry destination!) for the weekend, so there will be no more playing in the garden until next weekend at the earliest. The last gooseberry still has to arrive, and will then be planted, but we're almost done, I think, with major efforts for the autumn/early winter. I could, of course, collect the last leaves that still litter corners of the garden.

Oh: don't forget Tree O'Clock tomorrow!
