Busy day, more flowers and a visitor!
Another load of weeds bit the dust, there was lots of transplanting primulas and we had time for a visitor, Jaimie MacDonald from Made Curious! And the flowers are still super. There are still a few daffodils and lots of tulips but there’s lots more now, geraniums and geums, lupins and allium.

Visitors and gardening
We had quite a few visitors yesterday, John McLellan of Keep Scotland Beautiful, Sarah who was filming on behalf of the Power of Food Festival and, in the evening, Wardie Church Rainbows replanted the Newhaven Heritage boat. But it was not all entertainment, we did some planting and weeding too.

Brightening the Starbank Terrace
Most of the rosemary bushes on the terrace round the lavender had died so we’ve given up on them and added a splash of colour. Many thanks Neil and Stan.
There are still plenty tulips too.
