Planting Mowing

Had a gorgious weekend weather wise so hit the garden. Dug the flower bed put in compost etc and went and brought some plants. Look lovely. Trimed Chatam Island forget me nots which have taken off in the rubbish plot. They are nice plants with lovely little blue flowers. Mowed lawns and trimmed edges. Hot and knackered. Now just got to trim around trees and down the side of the house. Then on to the vege garden. Planted some seeds (beans & tomatos) in seed raising mixture so hopefully they will sprout by the time I have ug the plot.
I love Monarch butterflies so I also purcahsed some Swan Plants They were covered in eggs by the next day but I didn't see one butterfly.
