Sorry I am
so late in posting this blog but I have been very building a new pool deck.
At last, a Garden
Club presentation. On the 16th we visited Oxley and District Garden
Club where I gave my latest presentation on ‘Aroids and Colour’.
They really
liked it and it was nice to receive a nice thank you letter.
We had a
bus trip booked to our garden but due to the heavy rain we had to cancel, just
too wet and soggy.
The other
cancellation was a visit to Steve Flood’s Nursery with the Cordyline Society as
we had Grandchildren duties that day.
March was a
great month for rain, in all we had over 500 mills, that filled up all our
tanks and gave the garden a deep watering.
The
existing pool deck was getting old and rotten so instead of waiting for winter
when the weather is cooler, I made a start, and what a big job it has turned
out to be.
I did not
finish it until mid-April so you will have to wait until next months Blog entry
to see the finished work.
I have also made benches for Judy's Bromeliads.
There were
two parts of the garden that I was not happy with, so out came the existing
plants, timber edges in then build up with soil and compost and finally fill
with new plants.
Some garden photos I took over the month.
