Sorted out the back garden this weekend. The runner beans were pulled up and the pods spread out in the greenhouse to dry. Beetroot was pulled up and boiled to death.
The cucumber plants were cut down and the remaining cucumbers given away with some put in the fridge for me. Tomatoes were given a hair cut and ripe ones picked.
The grape vine was trimmed slightly but now left until its leaves fall off.
The leeks have been left in for us to eat over winter.
Finally the compost bins were emptied and scattered all over the garden. We won't need any manure this year.
The garden has been put to bed.

It's that time of year, most of my garden is done, but it's still warm and there are loads of blooms still.
ReplyDeleteYou had me worried there! Thought it was you having a very early night. I still havent found a gardener who knows the difference between a weed and a flower. So we dont do veg anymore.
ReplyDeletePutting the garden to bed for the winter always makes me a little sad.
ReplyDeleteWell done. I still have all that to do.
