Welcome to this week’s Six on Saturday, hosted, as ever, by the indomitable Propagator. It would be impossible for me not to mention the glorious weather we’ve been enjoying over this past week. The previous week had hinted at warmth and teased us honest mortals with occasional sunshine. Over last weekend, these insinuations developed into …
Hello there, it’s Six on Saturday time again! This means I’m joining with The Propagator and chums in showing six highlights from the garden. Feel free to join in if you don’t already. Life in general is pootling along nicely but on the blogging front, I can’t seem to quite get back into the swing …
Hello and welcome to a long overdue Six on Saturday. What with one thing and another I haven’t been able to get my act together, the result being several week’s absence. This also means that there’s much to report on; spring has perhaps not sprung, but it has had a little peep round the corner. …
Top o’ the morning to you. Or indeed afternoon or evening. Another week has been and gone (where it went I’m not sure), bringing us back round to another Saturday and another Six things from the garden. The Propagator is, as usual, presenting many other Six on Saturday offerings so do pop over and take …
Why hello there! Time for another Six on Saturday, courtesy of The Propagator as per usual. It’s been a pretty fine week here in Birmingham: cold and frosty mornings, followed by glorious sunshine and a hint of warmth. Lovely stuff. Here’s my Six: 1. Pansy with Raindrops I headed into the garden to take some …
Welcome to this week’s edition of Six on Saturday. As usual, head editor The Propagator will be overseeing all this week’s entries: a cut here, a rewrite there, a new headline and a good yell about missed deadlines. I imagine. Usually I’m a bit of a traditionalist in the garden; as soon as most of …
Whoops: it appears I missed December! In actual fact I was completely present for all of December, simply not in my virtual form. As I mentioned in my post the other day, in the weeks preceding Christmas I barely saw the garden in daylight which did make taking pictures a little impractical. I return to …
Hello and good morning; or indeed afternoon, evening or night. It’s time I joined again with The Propagator in the weekly display of Six Things on a Saturday. Following on from last week’s foliage fest, I’ve spotted a few more autumn colours worthy of inclusion, so we’ll start with those: 1. Resplendent Ribes The Ribes …
It’s Six on Saturday time again, led as ever by The Propagator. Seeing as we’re so thoroughly and truly into autumn now (in the Northern Hemisphere anyway), I thought I’d take the opportunity to focus on some the hints and tints of seasonal colour in the garden. I think most of these plants have featured …
Good morning, welcome to another Six on Saturday! The garden is in an interesting place as far Six on Saturdays are concerned: I’m pretty pleased with how it’s looking but the things that are growing well are the same things that have been going strong for several weeks now. Pretty much everything worth looking at …
