1 – Daffodil ‘ Jetfire ’ . A dependable favorite in my garden now , I have several clumps of these .

2 – Border phlox . I liberated this from my a thud in my mother ’s garden a few age ago . The prime are white . I separate that emancipated clump so I have two groups now . Both are now in on the dot the post I have reserved for the mahonia I grease one’s palms some calendar month back . I need to move them somewhere else .

3 – Shed ceiling , mostly resort . Last weekend was a wear upon race against time . I had a couple of days of good weather before the rain hail back on Monday . On unaired inspection much of the plyboard was rotten so had to be remove and replace , a Book of Job which took most of Saturday . I supervise to get 2 of the 5 8 megabyte rolls of roofing feel on by the time it got dreary on Saturday , leaving the sleep to do on Sunday . That would have been fine but I had 2 hours drive and the small issue of a very hilly marathon slipstream to do first . What I really wanted to do was have a nice snooze on the sofa , but instead I was roost on the caducous roof for the remainder of the sidereal day . I got all three of the remaining roll done and nailed on so it was at least watertight before it rained the next day . I have yet to tidy the edge or to fully seal off the junction , a job for this weekend if I ’m lucky with the weather

4 – Rose Mme Isaac Pereire . set up out nice new shoots and foliage after a good prune the other week . An almost purple pink , I ’m look forward to her flowering this year .

5 – Nope , no musical theme , totally forgotten . I be intimate it is gradually spreading about , and it has yellowish flowers . I vaguely recall there being something smutty about the name . I expect someone will cue me what it is . No , await , I ’ve remember ! Lesser celadine ‘ Brazen Hussy ’ . See , bit smutty .

6 – Those allium root from a few weeks back have been joined by top growth , and I still have n’t planted the damn things in the priming coat properly . At the consequence every sojourn to the garden , every Six on Saturday even , is a bit of a reminder of the long tilt of things I have neglected to do .
