Replanting Troughs And Planters For The Carboot Sale.

 I was given some plastic troughs and planters recently .  We took them empty to a car boot sale and we came back home with them.

So I decided to plant them up with my homegrown perennials that I have grown from cuttings this year:.




They will soon fill out and put on a floral display.

If they sell all well and good.  If they don't I will bring them home again.  Such is the life of a plantaholic smallholder.

  7. Do you grow strawberries Dave? I had some hanging basket ones of which the runners reached all the way to the ground and now the garden underneath is full of strawberry plants. Good ground cover. Strawberries would look good in those clover-leaf planters. I hope your daisies fill out fast and provide a good display for the next carboot sale you take them to.

 My homemade axe chopped logs. We go through a bag of discount supermarket logs in a net bag every night.  They charge the kings ransom of 5...
