Visitor's Garden thoughts

Back in July, PJ cleared all the side of the 'Sleeper Garden', removed bushes that had been there for years, seemed a shame but there is, at some point, going to be a new building, or Bothy, going there so the land had to be cleared.  
I potted up the herbs and placed them over at the side of the Signal Box garden, where they appear to be growing on well.
In the meantime ....


....... a small Marigold started to show some leaves.... just a couple of them...


..... during my visit today, I noticed that the Marigold has grown into a fine plant, flowering well.  


Who says they need fertiliser, compost etc!!!

I would think that with this sort of tenacity, some time ago this plant would have been a weed!!!





I noticed this pretty little pansy growing well, this soil may be poor, ash, and smoke but these plants seem to be loving it!!!



There must've been some Crocosmia corms left in the soil as we now have a few green leaves showing through  ......


Of course, Mother Nature always claims back her land ....
..... the grass and euphobias have also started to appear in another spot .....


...... who knows we may even have a new lawn for a while!
