A fairly relaxing day at the park, weeding for an hour then coffee and cakes! Tulips are terrific!
Fine tulips

Starbank Park from the air
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.
On tenterhooks!
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!
Even more weeding today
Huge thanks to Jen Johnstone for many hours of weeding in the park today. The park is looking great as a result.
New herbaceous borders!
It was a damp morning but that didn’t stop us planting out four new herbaceous borders. Many thanks to Edinburgh Council for the plants and Jen Johnstone for all the organisation, planning and help.
And a ladybird braved the rain!
Extra session washed out, will it be better tomorrow?
It’s bucketing here and this morning’s extra session was washed out. Hope it’s better for tomorrow’s Wednesday session at 10.00. Please come along if you can.
Extra Time
A productive extra morning at the park with path edges, gutters and quite a lot of weeds cleared. I could show some lovely photos of paths and gutters but these are even prettier!
Cold, Wet and Windy
Weather was a bit miserable this morning but we’re a hardy bunch. The Green Flag inspection is looming and the weeds are thriving but we’re getting there.
The cherry trees are flowering
Glorious Morning
Terrific morning, it was warm with wall to wall sunshine. We weeded and weeded and planted a few more ferns (thank you Bridget). The park is looking good, with the tulips and primulas, in particular, fantastic.
