Coffee and weeding
Tea, coffee, cakes, biscuits were the order of the day. Special thanks to Sue and Asda for the éclairs and biscuits – very nice! We did garden too: more weeding and preparing for the summer bedding. Herbaceous borders are starting to look good.

A visitor and lots of weeding
Catherine Cumming from Edinburgh Living Landscape came to visit us today. We had an interesting chat about the park and about the Living Landscape project and then Catherine helped with the weeding, many thanks.
Weather felt more like March than May but we had a productive morning. Loads of borders were edged and weeded and the park is much tidier and looking good. There are even a few cherries still flowering.
Flowers in the park
The tulips are still terrific and the geraniums beside the Starbank Road are by far the best they’ve been so far.

At last, a Warm Wednesday!
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.
