A busy day.

First there was planting primroses and bulbs on the car park bank - there are already masses of snowdrops and campion so this will add more early colour. 

And then it was strimming the back of the Cobb. This is left to go wild with all sorts of wild hedgerow stuff but it was very matted so I have cut it back and raked it out. It can grow wild again now but better.

Then it was taking out nettles in the pig field. I have cleared out a section of edge that was very wild and nettley so I have cut it back and thrown some grass seed around so it can now get mown regularly which will kill off the nettles. 

But there is always time to stop and look at the flowers - lovely combination of pinks and blues in this bed.
