So much to do, so much to do.........am too busy sitting in front of my lovely wood burning stove, drinking wine and watching Game of Thrones (only 2 episodes left til end of series 3 - boohoo).
I have harvested my pussy willow and seedheads. The berries are very early this year and so I'm worried that the birds will have eaten them all by Christmas.
This week I need to: pot up paperwhites, dry orange slices, make willow hearts and cone garlands, collect alder cones, gather moss and paint birch branches - I love this time of year, just wish that I was better organised. A leopard never changes etc....
On the garden front, we moved daylilies from the cottage garden where they had outgrown their space and moved them up the field - to the prairie and laneside. We also planted lots of camassia bulbs in the orchard - they seem to thrive on our heavy, damp clay soil and bulk up well.
The willow arch got a hair cut this week.
The river lilies are flowering their little hearts out.
