The sunshine was beckoning me this morning, but I had to hang out the washing first (like many New Zealanders we line-dry all year, either outdoors or under the carport).
You can see my Little Garden beside the house wall.
I planted out some parsley seedlings,
weeded the strawberry patch,
tidied up the silverbeet,
and shuddered at the reappearance of the Paper Wasps.
Then it was time to sit down with a large glass of lemon water.
That was enough gardening for me for one day!

I'm excited for you. It seems like springtime always brings excitement, planting a garden and flower beds and watching them grow. Enjoy your warm sunshine 😊
ReplyDeleteI love that you have the little garden!
ReplyDeleteNothing better than a bit of gardening with the sun shining, and the promise of a harvest.
ReplyDeleteLovely to hear about your spring weather as we head into Autumn very abruptly here.
ReplyDeleteI wish we could get that curly parsley. It just seems to taste better than the straight leaf variety
ReplyDeleteI think it tastes better too - I really don't like the flat-leaf stuff :)
DeleteYou did well, Margaret. The garden looks great!
ReplyDeleteSpring fever is a real thing, I can see that you are looking forward to sunshine and warmer days ahead!
ReplyDeleteI like your garden and it looks like a manageable size which is a good thing. I know all about Spring fever. I bite off way more than I can chew, as the saying goes. Later I have lots of opportunities to regret everything I have to water and weed etc. Enjoy your sunshine>💚
ReplyDeleteWe have always hung our washing out on the line or the hanger, using the dryer all the time is just way too expensive.
ReplyDeleteYour garden looks wonderful. I too am feeling that spring urge but the weather has been non compliant. Maybe this weekend.
ReplyDeleteWe to dry on a clothes line outside, under the back veranda and even on clothes horses in the house. I don’t own a dryer. Don’t see the point
Nothing better than the smell of lined dried clothes:)
ReplyDeleteIt looks just right...blue sky, laundry on the line, the garden coming in! You're gearing up, and I'm in harvest mode. So fun to compare...and spring fever is just fine...enjoy it all!
