There’s a gardening session on Saturday 23rd, usual time, 10.00-11.30. The forecast is good and the weeds are growing fast! Please come along if you can.
Good luck to MyParkScotland who launch this weekend. Our gardening sessions are part of the huge range of community activities in parks across Scotland.
It was a glorious, warm and productive morning although we did make time for coffee. The spring colour has largely gone but clematis are starting to flower on the east wall. The ferns are doing remarkably well, I think they have all survived their first few weeks at Starbank. A special thanks to Bridget for bringing more ferns this morning. The herbaceous borders and roses are thriving, too, and promise lots of colour in the summer.
There’s still loads to do and the forecast is fine!! Please come along if you can.
A fairly relaxing day at the park, weeding for an hour then coffee and cakes! Tulips are terrific!
Graeme Murray has made a great video of the park from the air. See it at https://youtu.be/Lga8o5LKjH0. Other local flights are available to view on You Tube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8qeoZZu0SiAiS5iC5uC52A .
Thanks Graeme.
Stress at the park! We’d weeded and tidied and weeded again. Jen and Ritchie brought a gazebo (despite the wind!) and food. The Green Flag judges came and inspected. Fingers crossed!

It’s Green Flag inspection day on Tuesday and there’s an extra gardening session, with tea and coffee, 10.00-11.30. Our Wednesday session is on the 13 May, 10.00-11.30, as usual. Please come if you can.
Huge thanks to Jen Johnstone for many hours of weeding in the park today. The park is looking great as a result.
