What have you done in the garden today?

No garden, but a space I’m hoping to transform. So, it’s in planning stages for the summer. Once I get the fence repainted, I need netting to go around in order to create a safe area for kitty to get fresh air, be outside without getting lost.

In the past, we planted loads of veggies. The potatoes, courgettes and rhubarb were the best but no more. Still hoping to hang some baskets. However, unsure as which flowers to choose.

Nothing much in my outdoor space yet. However, I’ve used my ChiefArchitect 3D program and planned the basic.

I’ve a bench-type storage box with our foldable BBQ and the leftover charcoal briquettes, clothes pins for laundry and the rubber grass carpet for the area’s floor.

Now, I need to get chicken wire and outdoor boards to close off the area to make a space for us and kitten to safely enjoy some fresh air without risk of kitty scurrying away or some other animals attacking while chilling lol.

So, you can say that I’ve worked in my VIRTUAL garden today :+1:

I noticed that some of my plants had flowered in the front garden. I think they are called bromiliards or something like that.
