New borders

The weed contingent has been a battle in 2010 so I have been preparing a new set of beds for the colletion to reside in. Posh borders a mere 20 yards away but sprayed, weeded, soil improved with grit (drainage) and a spot of slow release food. Some scaffold boards are on order to define the plantings and some muscle booked to bring it all together.

Moving will take place in March, or maybe late April.

At least 5 new varieties were added last autumn and another 5 or so are on the cards for this year.

Indeed we have quite the collection! by my reckonging we'll be topping 50 varieties by 2012.
