I know it’s probably not the best time to do it, but I carefully uprooted a lovely pink climbing rose from the front garden to plant around the window. It looked a bit sad for a few days but with plenty of watering and some food it looks fine.

Just need to sort out that patch of bare earth with grass seed or turf and it’s done! I collected the clump of chamomile that had self-seeded on that spot and hung it in the greenhouse to dry. Every morning when I open the door I get a gust of drowsy scent, it’s lovely. I might have to make some tea.
