SixOnSaturday

So two things have occur since last Saturday . Firstly , I have planted all the tulips . All . The . Tulips . I may buy more . I do still have the daffodils to plant somehow , somewhere , but the tulips are done . Secondly , we have had a right frost , down below zero Thursday nighttime , the first time this year . Dahlia foliation is looking blackened so I should soon be able to undertake the tidying of those . The third of the two things is that I have start to realize away end up plants in the perimeter . I could wait no longer . Anyhow , time to tackle Six on Saturday . Six affair , in the garden , on a Saturday . Could be anything , you decide . Join in !

Here are my Six for this week .

1 – memory problems . The greenhouse is getting a little overrun by sheltering delimitation tender plants . On this shelf are two begonia ‘ glowing embers ’ ( still flowering a little ) and three osteospermums . I ’m not sure if it is really deserving preserving the osteos , but we ’ll give it a try .

2 – Godetia . This stopped flower a month or two ago , I had n’t quite got around to moving the pot or composting the clay . prosperous , as it is blossom again with gusto . On the cusp of December ? Madness .

3 – Cyclamen . As I consider I have observed here before , to me Cyclamen purpurascens always bring to mind a villain in the Italian version of Doctor Who .

4 – Next give ’s foxgloves . Sown to begin with this year and planted out durnig the summer , this lot should be blossom around May next class . They ’ll give a bit of tiptop in the mete and attract our buzzy friends too . I ca n’t recall now which sort they are . Could be ‘ Pam ’s Choice ’ or possibly ‘ Sugar Plum ’ , we ’ll regain out together next year .

5 – Rose ‘ Danse de deu ’ . Another clinger - on , this plant is still pose out buds .

6 – Salvia ‘ Amistad ’ . Common as gunk these days , but given the vigour with which it flowers , not one I ’d be snobby about . I think this industrial plant was the sole outdoor subsister of last winter and has been the most robust of plants . I ’ll be give it a good eiderdown of leaf mould in the promise that it makes it through to next spring .

Have a great gardening weekend , do n’t leave to check back in as more link get lend during the day .

Stay safe , I ’ll be back next weekend for another # SixOnSaturday .
